    We've made great strides to decriminalize the medical use of marijuana, but there is still so much more to be done, and we have so far to go!

    I know most of you are aware of this site, but I feel like it cannot be promoted enough, especially in this forum, where so many rely on the availability of effective medication.

    Please take a moment to write to your legislators about the reform of medical marijuana laws, and post back and let us know what state you are from, and how you think we can make a difference!

    The more people who write to those who represent us, the more our own views are reflected in our nation's principle's and values (In America, that is).

    Not to mention, if you post a reply, it helps promote this link a little ;)

    I'd rather not paste my entire response, due to googling reasong, but I basically responded delineating the details of the exact legislation passed, and asked how a patient would go about obtaining such a medication. You have to break the law in order to use this "legislation".

    My followup response will be a set of questions, asking him what the process is for actually taking advantage of this supposed legislation.

    Delegate Sossi's email address is: Richard.Sossi@house.state.md.us

    However, bear in mind, he does represent a small district, within Maryland.

    Doesn't he look friendly? :)

    Live eastward though... too bad it's risky to make connections by way of Net, but... ;)
