August 6, 2010Texas Democrats Pass Resolution in Support of Medical Marijuana
August 11, 2010We cannot be complacent and wait for the the session to start before
we contact our respective representatives. We really need to keep this subject
on the minds of our elected officials which means contacting them now, and
following up with them several times BEFORE January.
So, we would like for ALL of you (who are citizens of Texas) to contact your
State Representatives and State Senators and politely ask for their support on
a medical marijuana bill in the coming session. Phone calls are the best
method for leaving a message, but if you can’t call go ahead and send an
e-mail.
You can find your representatives and how to contact them at this link:
http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/
At the bottom right hand side of that page, you’ll see a box saying, “Who
Represents Me?”.
Enter your address in that box, click “Submit”, and you’ll be directed to a
page listing all of your elected representatives in Texas.
Please make a call to both your Texas State Representative AND your Texas State
Senator (not your U.S. rep/sen), and ask for their support on a medical
marijuana bill in the 2011 Legislative Session.
