[Mtnorml-list] Federal Raids - what you can do

[John Masterson (Montana NORML)]

Friends,

Please forward this message to your contacts.

Our latest info on the raids is here:
http://blog.montananorml.org/2011/03/14/live-blog-dea-raids-of-medical-marijuana-in-montana/

A lot of people are angry and asking us what they can do.

For the immediate term, our advice is to take our complaints to our
congressional delegation and newspapers.

The core message: You're upset about the unconscionable federal
intrusion that defies the Obama memo and meddles with Montana state
politics.


* Write a letter to the editor of your local paper. You can usually find
an email address on their 'Contact' page; here are a few:
- http://missoulian.com/app/contact/
- http://billingsgazette.com/app/contact/?contact=letter
- http://www.greatfallstribune.com/section/customerservice03

- http://www.bozemandailychronicle.com/submissions/?mode=letters
- http://www.dailyinterlake.com/contact_us/


* Call the closest office of John Tester and Denny Rehberg, who work for
us in Washington DC:

http://rehberg.house.gov/index.cfm?sectionid=31&sectiontree=6,31

http://tester.senate.gov/Contact/offices.cfm

Call them before noon Tuesday if you can. Concentrating the calls in a
single morning will have an impact.

The core message: You're upset about the unconscionable federal
intrusion that defies the Obama memo and meddles with Montana state
politics.

If their representatives tell you anything interesting, please let me
know what you've learned.
