 Drug
Policy Alliance - A leading organization
working to broaden the public debate on drug policy
and to promote realistic alternatives to the war
on drugs based on science, compassion, public health
and human rights.
More
than 500,000 Americans are arrested on marijuana
charges every year. They
can lose their jobs or student loans or access to public housing. Many end up
in jail.
Prohibition didn’t work for alcohol, and it’s not working for marijuana.
It’s clear to us
that the war on drugs is actually a war on people. We’re the Drug Policy
Alliance.
We stand for reason, compassion, and justice. Join us.
