We are shocked and awed! For DEA to act with such brazen arrogance and in
direct conflict with the new President’s pledge to end federal raids is deeply
concerning. With only weeks left in office, it is clear that top DEA officials
are using this transitional period to exploit the differences in policy between
the old and new administration.
We need you to act… and we need you to act NOW!
Call President Obama and urge that he issue an immediate suspension to all
federal funds used to investigate, intimidate, arrest, and prosecute individuals
who use or provide medical cannabis in accordance with their state laws. Call
the White House at (202) 456-1111 and say:
"Hi, my name is _____________. Today, the Drug Enforcement Agency
raided a medical cannabis dispensary in Tahoe, California. The dispensary was
raided by DEA despite numerous statements by President Obama saying he would end
federal interference with state medical
cannabis laws. I'm very concerned about outgoing DEA officials undermining
these state laws and aggressively threatening innocent Americans. I'm also
concerned about DEA taking action that is an affront to President Obama's
position. I am pleading with President Obama to issue an immediate suspension of
all federal funds used to investigate, intimidate, arrest, or prosecute
individuals who use or provide medical cannabis in accordance with their state
laws. We are being threatened by our own DEA. Please help us."
President Obama's position on medical marijuana is no secret. This is the
single most important action you have been asked to take this year. We need
President Obama's support. Once you’ve made this phone call, please forward
this message to friends and family. Then visit www.whitehouse.gov/contact
to copy and paste the above message.
Sincerely,
George Pappas

Americans for Safe Access
First Medical Marijuana Raid by DEA under Obama Administration
Advocates call on president Obama to quickly change
harmful, outdated policy
Oakland, CA -- The Drug Enforcement
Administration (DEA) raided a medical marijuana dispensary today in South Lake
Tahoe, California, in the first days of the new Obama Administration. Even
though President Barack Obama had made repeated promises during his election
campaign to end federal raids in medical marijuana states, many high-ranking
Bush Administration officials have yet to leave office. For example, still at
the helm of the DEA is acting Administrator Michele Leonhart, who has been
responsible for numerous federal raids in California, following in the footsteps
of her predecessor Karen Tandy. Neither Eric Holder, President Obama's pick for
U.S. Attorney General, nor a new DEA Administrator, have taken office yet.
"Whether or not this unconscionable raid on a medical marijuana provider is
the fault of federal officials from the previous administration, President Obama
has an opportunity to change this harmful and outdated policy," said Caren
Woodson, Director of Government Affairs for Americans for Safe Access (ASA).
"We are hopeful that these are the last remnants of the Bush regime and
that President Obama will quickly develop a more compassionate policy toward our
most vulnerable citizens."
Medical marijuana and an unknown amount of cash was seized during the raid today
from Holistic Solutions, but no arrests were made. This first DEA raid under the
new Obama Administration is another example of more than 100 raids on medical
marijuana providers that have occurred in California over the past two years.
While the greatest federal enforcement has occurred in California, the DEA has
been active in other states as well. Federal agents raided the Washington State
offices of a medical marijuana advocacy group that was supplying starter plants
to hundreds of authorized patients. In Oregon, a federal grand jury was used by
the DEA to obtain the medical records of several patients, an effort that was
later rejected by a federal court. The DEA also went as far as to threaten New
Mexico officials for planning to implement that states medical marijuana
distribution program.
"I would not have the Justice Department prosecuting and raiding medical
marijuana users," Senator Obama said in an August 2007 statement.
"It's not a good use of our resources," he continued. This statement
was followed up by Obama in other public events in the run up to the election.
"President Obama must rise to the occasion by quickly correcting this
problem and by keeping the promise he made to the voters of this country,"
said Woodson. ASA has been working with the new Administration on changing
federal law around medical marijuana, which has included providing a
comprehensive set of policy recommendations.
