1.Write
letters
to your
Representatives
telling them what you want. This is something that we
are seriously lacking, and the only side they ever hear
is the side of the Drug Warrior. It is time for them to
hear our side, and ask for what we want.

2.Attend
meetings
and ask for policy change. There are many appropriate
venues from the Disabilities Commission to the
Governor’s Council on Alcohol & Drug Abuse Programs and
the Governor’s Commission on Senior Services or the
Oregon Pain Management Commission and the Oregon Health
Fund Board. These are a great opportunity to educate
several policy makers at once and influence policy: that
matters almost as much as making legislative change.

3.Write
letters to your local paper.
Even editorials that don’t get published can influence
the way an editor feels about a subject.

4.Go
to the Governor’s Council on Alcohol & Drug Abuse
Programs.
They meet every month, go to their meeting. They need to
see the people they are trying to hurt, and have to look
us in the eye. We can make a difference.

5.Blog
about marijuana law reform
on your local chat board. Getting the word out helps the
lurkers who don’t respond food for thought and shows our
opposition for the rude, stupid bigots they are. Just
make sure to always take the high-ground and never stoop
to name-calling no matter how awful they are to you.
