It's Up to You (Action Alert)

Dear friends,

Today's the day.

This is our best chance to get Congress and President Obama to establish an important commission that could provide recommendations on how to reform our marijuana laws, as well as other criminal justice issues.

The Senate is considering a bill that would establish a national commission to make recommendations on improving the criminal justice system -- but Congress is dragging its feet.  They need to hear from reformers around the country in support of this bill. Send a message to Senate leadership now!

This bill has already passed the House. It has also passed the Senate Judiciary Committee. All we need is for Senate Leadership to bring it to the floor for a final vote. We’ve got the bill to the ten yard line, but we need you to score the touchdown. Please take just a few minutes today to contact Senate Leadership and tell them to pass the National Criminal Justice Commission Act this week.

This is our last chance this year to pass this important reform bill. Please take action and forward this email to your friends and family.

Sincerely,

Bill Piper
Director, Office of National Affairs
