Hey Folks,
Two things:
1. This summer medical marijuana and decriminalization bill will be in Congress. Call your federal representatives and ask them to support the Hinchey Amendment. This Amendment would put a stop to federal raids on medical marijuana patients who are following their doctors' advice. Twelve states currently provide protection for patients who use medical marijuana at their doctors' suggestion yet the DEA continues to arrest these patients. This summer Congress will be voting on the Hinchey Amendment. The bill, which would stop federal tax dollars from being used to arrest patients who use medical marijuana. Last year the Hinchey Amendment received 165 votes, short of the 218 needed for the bill to pass the House of Representatives.
HR 5843 would decriminalize possession of 100 grams or less of marijuana. Ask your congressional representative to support HR 5843 and the Hinchey Amendment
It is important to find out how your representative voted last year on the Hinchey Amendment: http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2007/roll733.xml - if you don't know who your representative is, you can find out here: Find My Representative (https://forms.house.gov/wyr/welcome.shtml)
2. It is time for medical marijuana to come to North Carolina. Please take the time to meet or call your state representatives and ask them to please sponsor a medical marijuana bill for North Carolina similar to this one: Medical Marijuana Suggested Bill for North Carolina (http://www.performanceimpressions.com/medical_protection.html)

In North Carolina, wet plants and the weight of mixtures is used to reach the 10 lbs. threshold which automatically means trafficking charges carrying mandatory minimums are arraigned.
