Re: Get Active this Election Cycle

These are opportunities to talk to candiates about SB 465 and build more opposition to it in the Senate as well as to advance drug policy change. I'm urging OR NORML & THCF members to educate candidates about OCTA and dispensary advocates to discuss I-28. I'm urging both groups to tell candidates to oppose discrimination in the workplace.

I'd like to see the marijuana community be an active force in election cycles, instead of waiting until after the election to see what we get stuck with. I'm urging everyone to get to know their candidates and to support candidates who can persuaded to support us.

When we showed up at the OHFB, Elvy & my husband and I made marijuana part of the discussion because it rightly should have been part of the discussion in the first place. My hope is that by posting these events here that they will reach the kind of people we need to come and talk to these candidates about drug policy reform.
