Dea Administrator Confirmation Hearings

[David1946]

As Chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, U.S. Senator Patrick Leahy will conduct the confirmation hearings for Acting DEA Administrator Michele Leonhart. Ms. Leonhart has been nominated by President Obama to be the new administrator of the DEA.

 

Please urge Senator Leahy to aggressively question Ms. Leonhart about recent medical marijuana raids.

 

Over the past two months, the DEA has raided two separate laboratories that happened to run tests on the strength and purity of medical marijuana. There have also been raids on two private cultivators in Colorado and up to 12 private cultivators in Hawaii. To make matters worse, the federal government has assisted local law enforcement in dozens of other raids in California, Colorado, and Michigan.

 

Let the U.S. Senate know that these actions are unacceptable.

 

Urge U.S. Senator Patrick Leahy to ask Michele Leonhart tough questions about DEA medical marijuana raids.

David1946, Thanks for the post, wanted to blog this info myself but still trying to figure out the new site.

 

If even a small portion of the users of this site email Senator Leahy on this DEA issue it will be a great help.

 

Thanks again,

 

Peace.

Right on! Received the action alert too, thanks for posting it.

 

I wonder if the hearings will be televised, anyone know?

 

Above is a link to send an email to Leahy, if you have a minute folks, send one over to him. Let him know we're watching.
