Visits by constituents to their offices are always welcome by elected officials. If you would like to speak to your elected officials face to face, please attend one of OPAN's Lobby Days. Be sure to contact OPAN President Rob Ryan to schedule a Lobby Day appointment with your elected officials.
SOURCE - GOOGLE
Do some research on it. It depends on what state you are in. I think california is the most relaxed about the range of ailments that qualify. Some states are limited to chemo patients, aids patients and other serious chronic pain conditions. I think you find out a lot more if you did a search.
