Help Now

Our inability to stop the war on drugs, a dismal economy, and rising government debt have been the main news lately.  These issues give us a great opporutunity to capitalize on America’s largest cash crop while implementing regulation.

Please help Potx.org convince members of Congress to support reform by filling out the form below.  It only has a few fields and will make a world of difference!

Subject: Please end the prohibition of marijuana for medical and personal use

The statistics show we are losing the war on drugs to Mexican Drug cartels.  These cartels have created an environment of fear that makes it near impossible for any public officials to perform effective work. The country’s safety and stability has been compromised and it will only continue to get worse.
Please help us right these wrongs.  Our policies are fueling the drug cartels who kill women and children and have no mercy.  Between 60% and 75% of the money funding Mexican drug cartels comes from marijuana sales in the U.S.  If Congress duplicated the alcohol efforts in the 1930s, we could remove these profits out of the criminal market by taxing and regulating marijuana like alcohol.

For more than 70 years, marijuana prohibition has failed us. Despite having strict laws and spending billions of dollars on fighting marijuana use, America has the highest rates of marijuana use in the world. We had 872,720 marijuana-related arrests in 2007, more than any other year in American history. More than 775,000 of those arrests were for simple possession – not trafficking or production, just simple possession.

These arrests come at a significant cost to the American taxpayer. Ending marijuana prohibition would save between $10 and $41 billion annually.

Please help move our nation towards a better marijuana policy: Introduce and support legislation to end marijuana prohibition and regulate marijuana like alcohol or tobacco.
