Dear Friends,
The Committee for a Safer Michigan is proud to announce a petition drive to end the prohibition of marijuana. This ballot initiative will give Michigan citizens the opportunity to vote in November 2012 for a constitutional amendment to end marijuana prohibition for adults aged 21 and over. This bill will not make it legal for anyone to drive while impaired or change workplace policies/regulations.
Outlawing (prohibiting) marijuana has not:
• Reduced its availability;
• Made society safer;
• Reduced access to marijuana for minors.
Marijuana prohibition in Michigan has:
• Made it easier for minors to obtain marijuana;
• Decreased the health and public safety of Michigan families;
• Eroded the public’s relationship with law enforcement;
• Wasted limited law enforcement and municipal resources;
• Created massive profits for drug cartels and terrorists;
• Denied relief to the suffering of seriously ill, injured, and dying citizens.
The actual petition drive is underway. We will continually be signing up volunteers and organizing the campaign. All petition signatures need to be collected by July 9th, 2012.
We hope you will want to join our efforts. Please download the volunteer sign-up sheet and a copy of this explanation letter. Forward this letter, sign-up sheet and guidelines to ask your friends to be volunteers and send to your social networks. Make copies to share where you live and where you visit during the holidays. Sign up your friends and family (even grandma). We need volunteers from all walks of life. There is a place for everyone in this movement.
We will continually be looking for circulators to sign up volunteers and organizers to work in several ways:
• To be the public contact people for our effort in their town or county so interested people can contact them to volunteer. The Contact person will relay their information to our state office;
• To be local organizers to oversee circulators and create a local action group;
• We also need volunteers willing to donate money, services, office supplies, etc.;
• Administrative support such as database building and phone calls;
• Hands-on work such as manning fundraisers and events.
About Us: We are a committee comprised of Michigan parents and grandparents, teachers and students, attorneys, health professionals, law enforcement and many others who come from a wide range of backgrounds and beliefs. The one thing we agree on is that marijuana prohibition has failed to protect the public health and safety of Michigan families. We want police to reallocate time and resources from enforcing marijuana prohibition to protecting our community from violent crime.
