MARIJUANA POLICY PROJECT 2 COMPASSIONATE USE

Libertarians believe that it is not the role of the government to regulate personal choice.

WWW.MPP.ORG About the Marijuana Policy Project
Someone is arrested for a marijuana offense every 36 seconds.
89% of these are for marijuana possession — not for sale or manufacture.
In the U.S., there are more arrests for marijuana possession each year than for all violent crimes combined.
Marijuana prohibition has failed. It's time for a new approach, and MPP is leading the way. Since our founding in 1995, we've been making real progress in reforming U.S. marijuana laws, by:

... lobbying for legislation and running ballot initiative campaigns to allow seriously ill patients to use medical marijuana with their doctors recommendations

... lobbying for legislation and sponsoring ballot initiatives to replace marijuana prohibition with a sensible system of regulation

... garnering widespread media coverage of the need to change marijuana policies

... lobbying Congress to reduce the White House drug czars budget for his deceptive ad campaigns

... building coalitions of supportive individuals and organizations to advocate on behalf of marijuana policy reform

... and much more.
