How else can I spread the word?
According to MPP.org
Connect Online
- Link to MPP’s website and encourage your visitors to get involved with marijuana policy reform.
- Like our Facebook page, subscribe to our YouTube channel, and follow us on Twitter and Instagram.
- Use this specially formatted link when you shop on Amazon.com, and proceeds from everything you buy will go to MPP. (We suggest that you bookmark this link in your browser as "Amazon" and use it every time you make purchases.)
Stay Informed
- Raise your voice. Sign up for MPP’s email alerts. You’ll receive breaking news updates and opportunities to use MPP's online system to email or call your legislators on important legislation. When legislators receive thousands of messages from MPP members and allies in support of marijuana policy reform, laws change.
- If you’re a student, choose marijuana policy issues for your research projects or papers. Students in your class will be exposed to the issue, and professors sometimes even use student ideas for their own research projects.
Spread the Word
- Send letters to your U.S. senators and representative, using MPP's free and easy automated system. And to take action on the state level, visit our State Policy page to choose your state, to learn about current marijuana-related legislation in your state, and to contact your state legislators.
- Get published. Write letters to the editor of your local newspaper about the need for marijuana policy reform. Feel free to use any of the information in MPP’s email alerts and on our website in your letters.
- Distribute MPP literature in your community. Many of our pages offer printer-friendly handouts and brochures that you can download.
- If you're a talk radio listener, call in and express support for reforming marijuana laws. Even if the subject being discussed isn't explicitly about marijuana, many related issues can be a springboard for urging reform. For example, if the issue is crime, you can point out that law enforcement resources are better spent going after violent criminals than on arresting adults who use marijuana responsibly.
- Arrange meetings with your state legislators and congressional representatives. Personal face-to-face visits to these offices can have considerable influence on elected officials.
Get Involved
- Become a dues-paying member of MPP. We rely solely on our members’ financial contributions to fund our work. Even better, become a monthly pledger.
- If you are a medical professional, lawyer, elected official, medical marijuana patient (or have a loved one who is), or member of the clergy or law enforcement, contact MPP about special ways you can help.
- Work to get your city council to pass an ordinance making marijuana offenses the city’s lowest law enforcement priority.
- If you are a clergy member, health professional, law enforcement officer, or community leader, sign our statement of principle. Download our statement of principle in support of regulating marijuana, print it out, and email or postal mail it to us at MPP, P.O. Box 21824, Washington, D.C. 20009, or at state@mpp.org. You can also ask community leaders you know to sign the statement and then send it on to us.
- If you're a college student, join Students for Sensible Drug Policy (SSDP). Visit SSDP's website to learn about starting a chapter at your school or joining an existing one.
