Minnesota Senate officially passes medical marijuana bill!

Dear :

Victory! Today, the Minnesota Senate voted 35-29 in favor of Minnesota's medical marijuana bill, which would protect seriously ill patients from arrest for using their doctor-recommended medicine.

On the House side, Minnesota's medical marijuana bill will be considered by the House Finance Committee within days as it winds its way to the House floor within the next few weeks.

Together, we can maintain the momentum of Minnesota's medical marijuana bill and pass it this session; however, it's not easy. Would you please consider donating $10 or more to the lobbying effort today?

These are exciting developments, and while we celebrate our success today, remember that we are far from a compassionate medical marijuana law in Minnesota.

Now more than ever, we need your help to push this bill through the House of Representatives. Please contact your representative today and urge him or her to vote in favor of H.F. 292. Cancer, HIV/ AIDS, and multiple sclerosis patients are counting on you!

Thank you for all you have done to get us to this point. Please pass this alert on to everyone you know in Minnesota, and let's make Minnesota the 14th medical marijuana state.

Sincerely,

Elizabeth Newman
Minnesota Organizer

P.S. If you are a patient, a doctor, a member of law enforcement, or would just like to get more involved with the medical marijuana lobbying effort, please contact me at enewman@MinnesotaCares.org.

Minnesota's medical marijuana bill passes last House committee!

Dear :

Yesterday, the Minnesota House Ways and Means Committee voted 10-8 in favor of H.F. 292, which would allow seriously ill patients to use their doctor-recommended medicine without fear of arrest or prison.

This was the final committee to hear Minnesota's medical marijuana bill. Soon, the entire Minnesota House of Representatives will vote on whether to protect cancer, multiple sclerosis, and HIV/AIDS patients from criminal penalties for using medical marijuana to ease their suffering. Please contact your representative right now to let them know its time for Minnesota to have a compassionate, sensible medical marijuana law.

The House vote could happen any day now and it's crucial your representative hears from you. Please send an e-mail to your representative now and urge them to vote YES on H.F. 292! It takes just a few minutes with our easy-to-use online tool.

Also, if you could please donate at least $10 to our lobbying effort, you can help to make sure we have the resources we need to get this bill passed into law this year.

Thank you for all that you have done to get us to this point. We are on the brink of making 2009 the year Minnesota stops arresting medical marijuana patients! Please forward this e-mail to everyone you know in Minnesota, and lets make Minnesota the 14th medical marijuana state!

Sincerely,

Elizabeth Newman
