Join NORML and our friends at the Marijuana Majority in our efforts to build support for marijuana law reform at the local level by contacting your mayor and urging their support for rational marijuana policies. Mayors are on the front lines of the war on cannabis and can see the devastation it is causing at the local level. It is time our local politicans take a stand and say enough is enough, it is time to stop wasting precious law enforcement resources, stop allowing the revenue from marijuana sales to flow into the hands of criminal elements, and stop enforcing a prohibition on a plant that is safer than tobacco and alcohol. Please take a moment of your time today to click the link below and encourage your mayor to join the majority of Americans who want to see marijuana legalized. We are at a pivotal moment. Support for legalization is the highest it’s ever been and it’s still growing. Now, Washington and Colorado have taken the first step toward ending prohibition for good. But the feds still have reefer madness and are threatening to stand in the way of these states. Thankfully, mayors across our nation are taking action. They see the harm of these laws first-hand, and they are calling for change. Is your mayor one of them? CLICK HERE TO QUICKLY AND EASILY CONTACT YOUR MAYOR AND URGE HIM OR HER TO SUPPORT ENDING MARIJUANA PROHIBITION Want to see what politicians, celebrities, academics, and more have already spoken out against marijuana prohibition?
