Take action to protect Sacramento medical marijuana patients
Attention Sacramento County Medical Marijuana Patients and Supporters!
Safe Access Now, along with local medical cannabis patients, is
currently lobbying the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors to
implement the statewide medical marijuana ID card program.
Participation in the program would be entirely voluntary for patients
and their caregivers; however, the county is required by law to offer
the cards to qualified residents.
Once the program is in place, patients and their caregivers will be
able to obtain the ID cards through a confidential program
administered by the Department of Health. The program works to protect
cardholders from unnecessary arrest, detainment, or the seizure of
medicine by state and local law enforcement.
In order for us to ensure that this vital program will be made
available to Sacramento County patients, we need your help.
If you are a resident of Sacramento County, please take a few minutes
to e-mail the board of Supervisors urging their support for the local
implementation of the ID card program. If you do not live in
Sacramento County, please forward this alert to any friends, family or
coworkers you might have in Sacramento.
After you have sent your e-mail, please contact Safe Access Now's
Aaron Smith at (866) 204-1341 or safeaccessnow [at] gmail.com to find
out how you can become more involved in our efforts to protect
Sacramento County patients.
With your support, implementation of our state's compassionate medical
marijuana laws will be a reality!
