Friday, October 26th on the Diag at Noon

Democratic Presidential Candidate
Mike Gravel

END THE WAR ON DRUGS NOW!

From the excessive construction of prisons to accommodate the surge of non-violent drug offenders to the business of convicting and incarcerating millions of people who are no threat to society, the War on Drugs has done more damage to families and communities than any other kind of war. It’s time to admit failure and start rebuilding lives.

Senator Gravel’s plan for ending the War on Drugs includes the following:

• Admitting the failure of the War on Drugs
• Officially reclassifying marijuana for medicinal purposes
• Decriminalizing the use and possession of marijuana
• Eliminating mandatory minimum sentences
• Ending incarceration of non-violent drug offenders
• Launching aggressive drug prevention programs
• Establishing drug treatment programs as alternatives to incarceration
• Making hard drugs available by prescription from a physician

Come to the Diag at Noon on Friday, October 26 to hear Mike Gravel speak out against the drug war!

Sponsors: Students for Sensible Drug Policy (SSDP), National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML), College Libertarians, and College Democrats
