“Medical Marijuana Day” at the Oklahoma Capitol

The Medical Marijuana Movement is on a roll in the United States.  New Jersey just passed medical marijuana and approximately twenty states had medical marijuana legislation introduced this session.

Now it’s our turn.  That’s right; right here, right now, OOOOklahoma!

On Wednesday, Feb. 17, medical marijuana patients and supporters are meeting at the State Capitol. We will meet on the second floor Rotunda at 1:00 p.m. and have a brief discussion before visiting our senators and representatives.  We will be presenting them with written information about medical marijuana and a copy of our proposed legislation.

It doesn’t matter if you are a potential medical marijuana patient or just someone who wants to see medical marijuana available in Oklahoma; we need you to attend this event.

Please attempt to arrange a meeting with your state senator and representative by calling their office.  Arrange the meeting between 1:00-3:00 p.m.  To find out who your state senator and representative are, call your local “Board of Election/Election Board”, or the State Election Board (405) 521-2391.  You can also find this information online at http://dprnok.net/blog/take-action-now/find-your-state-rep/.

It isn’t a problem if you can’t arrange a meeting with your elected official.  We are going to visit their office anyway.

If we can’t speak directly to our elected officials, we will leave the information with their staff.

No one will have to visit their legislators alone.  Our volunteers will gladly go along to support you.  We will stick together to demonstrate that many good people support medical marijuana in Oklahoma.

If you can’t make it to the Capitol that day, please contact your legislators anyway.  Please call, email, fax and/or write letters today!  Ask them to “Please introduce and endorse The Oklahoma Compassionate Care Medical Marijuana Legislation.” Let them know we are sending the legislation to their office and that they can meet actual medical marijuana patients on Feb. 17.
