LEGALIZE CANNABIS FOR MEDICINE

Editor:

We are a small group of individuals here in Parkersburg who have joined
together with the purpose of letting our governor and our legislative
leaders know of our desire to have medical cannabis (marijuana) legalized.
We have dubbed our group Mountaineers for Medical Cannabis.

MMC is committed to help educate fellow West Virginians about the many
beneficial uses of this God-given herb and to create a forum of voter
information.

We have spent many, many hours researching, attending rallies and marches
in other states, and in correspondence with Governor Wise and the
representatives for the 8th District.

Their replies indicate that they are willing to listen, but in Governor
Wise's own words, "there are not many West Virginians clamoring for it."

It is our belief that if those West Virginians were not in fear of losing
jobs, of losing their families, homes, and other possessions and fear of
incarceration, that many more would come forth "clamoring" in favor of
medical cannabis.

We are working at obtaining and printing educational/informative pamphlets
for distribution. We can be contacted at: Mountaineers for Medical
Cannabis, P.O. Box 1151, Parkersburg, WV 26102-1151.

It is time for those West Virginians in need, and those who believe in that
need, to be heard!
