This Thursday: US Senate Committee To Debate Reevaluating The Drug War!
This Thursday, December 3, members of the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee will debate Senate Bill 714, The National Criminal Justice Commission Act of 2009.
Senate Bill 714 will establish a `National Criminal Justice Commission’ to “undertake a comprehensive review of the criminal justice system … and make reform recommendations for the President.” The lead sponsor of this measure, Democrat Senator Jim Webb of Virginia, has remarked that this review ought to include a debate of federal marijuana policy, including regulating marijuana like alcohol.
It’s been many years since a federally appointed commission has taken an objective look at American criminal justice policies, and it’s been nearly 40 years since federal lawmakers have undertaken a critical examination of U.S. marijuana policy. Please take time today to urge your United States senators to support Senate Bill 714. If your senators sit on the Senate Judiciary Committee, then it is especially important that that they hear from you. For your convenience, a pre-written letter will be e-mailed to your members of Congress when you enter your contact information here:
After you have written your senators, please take a moment to write or call Sen. Webb and thank him for raising this important issue.
Thank you for assisting NORML’s federal law reform efforts.
Stay free and keep fighting,
The NORML Team

“You see this glass bong?” asks Achaan Chaa, the Thai meditation master. “For me this glass is already broken. I enjoy it; I smoke out of it. It holds my water admirably, sometimes even reflecting the sun in beautiful patterns. If I should tap it, it has a lovely ring to it. But when I put this glass bong on the shelf and the wind knocks it over or my elbow brushes it off the table and it falls to the ground and shatters, I say, ‘Of course.’ When I understand that the glass is already broken, every moment with it is precious.”[/quote]

They should have a laid back attitude towards pot. There is nothing wrong with it.

This was held over until the next meeting which is on the 10th.
It was low on the list for the Thursday meeting, but it should be pretty high (pun) on the list for the 10th so we'll see some more info then.

Where did you find that information? I did a 20 minute search of the net last thursday and couldn't find that info.

I did a little too much research looking into the results of this and found out they didn't get around to it on the 10th either.
The judiciary committee meets again on the 24th and it seems to have become a priority.
I watched a video (I know, I'm a fucking geek) of the proceedings though and their shit takes forever... They bicker like old married gays and all the fluff and tradition takes away from half of their time... We'll see what happens with this one soon though.
