Call ASA if you've been cited or arrested for MMJ

by Americans for Safe Access
We will be using this information to create a formidable legal campaign
against
police resistance to upholding state medical marijuana laws.


Call ASA today if you've been cited or arrested for medical marijuana!

Even though Raich v. Ashcroft has been overturned, providing the federal
government with the ability to arrest and prosecute medical marijuana
patients,
ASA believes that local law enforcement will be patients' greatest
adversary.

ASA has recorded countless instances of local and state police invoking
"federal
law" as the reason for citing patients or seizing their medicine.

As such, we want to be sure that law enforcement encounters are scrutinized
and carefully tracked.

If you have been cited or arrested by local or state police, please call
the ASA office at 888-929-4367 or 510-251-1856 to give us the details.
You can also download ASA's law enforcement encounter form
<http://www.safeaccessnow.org/downloads/ASA_Legal_Support_Form.rtf>,
fill it out, and fax it to us at 510-251-2036.

We will be using this information to create a formidable legal campaign
against
police resistance to upholding state medical marijuana laws. The public
as well
as elected officials must become aware of rights violations being
perpetrated by
local police, and this can only happen with your help.

Call ASA today at 888-929-4367 or 510-251-1856!
