The time has come for New Jersey to join the 12 other states that allow seriously ill patients access to medical marijuana! Help make it happen by asking legislators to support the New Jersey Compassionate Use Medical Marijuana Act.
Take action now.
In 2006, Drug Policy Alliance New Jersey launched the Compassion Use Campaign to advocate for the passage of medical marijuana legislation. The Campaign supports Senate Bill No. 119 and Assembly Bill No. 804, known as the ??New Jersey Compassionate Use Medical Marijuana Act.? This important legislation would allow seriously ill patients access to medical marijuana with a doctor??s recommendation. Patients would register with the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services and receive registration cards indicating that they are legally allowed to use medical marijuana.
Drug Policy Alliance New Jersey continues to work hard to build our support coalition, educate legislators about medical marijuana, and advocate for consideration of the ??New Jersey Compassionate Use Medical Marijuana Act,? but we need your help to rally support for the bills in the legislature. This means obtaining additional legislative sponsors in both the Senate and Assembly that can push the legislation forward. Urge key legislators to sponsor the ??New Jersey Compassionate Use Medical Marijuana Act!?
Each year thousands of New Jerseyans are diagnosed with cancer, HIV/AIDS, multiple sclerosis and other life threatening illnesses. The symptoms and suffering caused by these illnesses can be devastating. Fortunately, doctors have an array of medicines and treatments to help ease this suffering and improve quality of life. But for some patients, currently available medicines do not offer relief. For these patients, medical marijuana may offer hope for relief from terrible symptoms such as pain, nausea, muscle spasms, loss of appetite and wasting. Compassion and common sense dictate that doctors be allowed to recommend, and patients be allowed to access, the medicine best able to relieve suffering and improve quality of life. For this reason, contact your legislators and ask them to support S119 / A804.
