U.S. House of Representatives to Consider Cannabis Decriminalization!
Tell Your Representative to Support H.R. 5843!
NORML is pleased to report that H.R. 5843, an "Act to Remove Federal Penalties for Personal Use of Marijuana by Responsible Adults," has been introduced in the House of Representatives by Representatives Barney Frank and Ron Paul.
This measure, if passed, would strip the federal government of its authority to arrest responsible adult cannabis consumers. NORML founder and Legal Director Keith Stroup worked extensively with Frank’s staff to write this important legislation, which represents the first cannabis decriminalization measure introduced in Congress in 24 years.
Under current federal law, the penalty for cannabis possession is up to one year imprisonment and a $1,000 fine.
Please take a moment today to write your Representative and urge him to support this important legislation. For your convenience, a prewritten letter will be sent to your Representative when you enter your zip code below.
Thanks for supporting NORML’s efforts to reform marijuana laws in the United States.
