Here is a sample letter, feel free to cut and paste.

 

I am writing to urge you to do all you can to support and hasten scheduling of a hearing on H.R.3939 - Truth in Trials Act. H.R.3939 would end the conflict between outmoded Federal law and our more progressive Michigan Medical Marihuana Act. It would help avoid the undue confusion created by the current legal situation and make things easier for both law enforcement and medical marijuana patients.

 

This act would;

 

(1) allow any person on trial for a federal marijuana-related offense to introduce evidence that the alleged marijuana-related activities were performed in compliance with state law regarding the medical use of marijuana;

(2) allow an affirmative defense to a marijuana prosecution that the alleged marijuana-related activities complied with state law regarding the medical use of marijuana;

(3) limit the criminal liability of persons convicted of federal marijuana-related offenses;

(4) require the preservation and return (if a defendant is acquitted) of property seized in connection with a marijuana prosecution; and

(5) prohibit the seizure of plants grown or stored under a physician's recommendation or by order of a state or municipal agency in accordance with state law regarding the medical use of marijuana.

 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
