As many of you know there are bills in the RI House and Senate that seek to remove the rights of patients and caregivers to cultivate the Cannabis we need.
The bills (HB5401and SB204) are an assault on our self sufficiency!
If either of these bills pass we will be forced to purchase our medication from care centers that will be charging up to $500 an ounce!

We, as patients and caregivers, need to stand up and tell our community and elected officials that they cannot take away our RIGHT TO GROW.

We ALL must contact our elected officials and urge them to vote NO on these bills.

In New Mexico they passed such a bill and the compassion centers ran out of medication in 3 weeks!

Here in Rhode Island we will be forced to buy overpriced Cannabis from politically connected insiders who could not care less about Cannabis patients.
They only care about MONEY!

The Medical Cannabis community will be holding a rally on 03/08/2011.
On this day the DOH will hand down the decision as to which care center(s) will be licensed.

Let us show them our solidarity and our resolve!

Join me in standing up for our right to cultivate Cannabis!

Tuesday March 08 2011 10 AM
The Rhode Island Department of Health
3 Capitol Hill
Providence RI 02908

This is a peaceful rally
Sighs and banners are encouraged

Edit: The date given to me was wrong the actual decision will be made on Tuesday March 8 2011
Rally will be scheduled on this date

Thank You
 
Hello All,

I have had some Patients and other members of the community ask why we are holding the Rally for Compassion. I would like to clear that up, as to why we are holding the Rally for Compassion. We, as the community, who are directly affected by this decision wish to be present for the Official Decision of the Health Department. Where is our Compassion in RI? We NEED SAFE, reliable sources for our medicine. We DEMAND COMPASSION and Compassion Centers.
The Rally is to EITHER get the community together to applaud the Health Dept. for issuing all three of the C.C. Licenses, or to PROTEST the Health Dept. for not issuing all or any of the licenses. Also, we will be handing out information about the NEW BILLS being proposed as well as contact information so members of the community may contact their legislators about the bills. We MUST ORGANIZE NOW so we will be ready to combat these BAD BILLS accordingly if and when the time comes.
Only the community can HELP US! WE ARE THE COMMUNITY!
Be the change you wish to see in the world.

Keep Tokken

Hello All,

By now everyone has heard about the Dept.'s decision to delay there decision on who they are going to award the licenses for the C.C.'s.
This is unacceptable! We are still holding the rally but now it is a protest. Pass on this info please. We need signs made stating, "Where's the compassion."
"How much longer are we going to wait." And things of that nature. The Protest for Compassion will still be at the Health Dept. Tuesday the 8th in providence at 10am-2pm and then from there we will march down to the state house to make our voices heard there. With the budget in all the headlines we the Rhode Island Medical Cannabis Community can not let our cause Go Unnoticed!
See you all there in the AM! If there are any questions please ask, when doing so hit the REPLY ALL button so that we don't ask the same questions twice. Thank you for all of your Community support.
