"Is San Francisco Going To Pot?"

San Francisco is once again at the center of a national debate. More than 80% of San Franciscans say medical marijuana should be legally available and a majority even supports regulating, controlling, and taxing marijuana more or less like alcohol. But the federal government says “no” to medical marijuana, just as patients, advocates, bureaucrats, and politicians in San Francisco attempt to create a regulatory system in response to the proliferation of “pot clubs.” Will “the city that knows how” do the right thing? Mayor Gavin Newsom and Drug Policy Alliance director Ethan Nadelmann will tackle the controversial question, “Is San Francisco Going to Pot?”

Attend this forum featuring Drug Policy Alliance director Ethan Nadelmann and Mayor Gavin Newsom on Tuesday, July 26th from 5:30-7:30 PM at the Jewish Community Center of San Francisco, located at 3200 California Street. Admission is free, and open to the public. For more information on the event, and to RSVP, please contact Sue Eldredge at 415-921-4987 or at seldredge@drugpolicy.org, .
