Safe Access to Medical Marijuana is in Danger!

The Colorado Health Department is acting to restrict patient access to medical marijuana.  In March they will be voting on a rule which would rip patients out of safe caregiver relationships, and force them onto the streets in search of their life-giving medicine.  Help fight this threat to safe access by showing your support on March 18. 

What:  Solidarity event to help protect safe access to medical marijuana
Place: 4300 Cherry Creek Drive S., Denver 80246 (Colorado Health Dept. Building)
Time:  Noon on Wednesday, March 18
What else: This is NOT a rally.  This is a formal hearing and we NEED you to dress nice and act in a professional fashion.  Signs and banners will not be allowed in the building-- so don't bring them.  For more see
