Urge Governor Schwarzenegger to Stand Up for Patients' Rights!

Over the past several years, President Bush's Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has victimized patients and providers throughout California, undermining state law and stooping to new levels to shut down access for sick and dying patients in California. We must put an end to the attack on patients and providers!

Americans for Safe Access (ASA) has launched a pressure campaign, calling on Governor Schwarzenegger to "Stand Up for Patients' Rights: Defend California's Medical Marijuana Laws."

Please take action by sending an email calling on Governor Schwarzenegger to stand up for California medical marijuana patients!

Dear Governor Schwarzenegger,

The voters approved the use medical cannabis (marijuana) in 1996, and tens of thousands of Californians now rely on safe access to medicine to treat the symptoms of AIDS, cancer, multiple sclerosis, and other serious illnesses. The federal government still does not recognize the validity of our state law and continues to arrest patients and caregivers, uproot their plants, and confiscate their legal medicine. We need your help to defend the rights of medical cannabis patients and caregivers and the will of the voters in California. We are writing to urge you to take a stand against federal medical cannabis enforcement and to support efforts to harmonize federal law with the compassionate laws of California and the eleven other states that allow medical cannabis use. The most vulnerable Californians are counting on your support! Thank you,
We will add your signature from the information you provide.
