Dear Friend,

I know you’ve already heard from me a few times over the past week, but I’m reaching out again because it’s important.  

Oregon’s latest bill to recriminalize drugs won’t go into effect until September 1st, but we can’t let this moment empower lawmakers to see disinformation and say, “See, it failed in Oregon, why would it work anywhere else?”​​​​​

Now is the time that we MUST push back against this false narrative. And we need your help.  
​
Please, if you’re able, join the Reformers Club by making your first monthly gift today. Your steady support will help change peoples’ lives. It will sustain our long-term fight to end drug criminalization, repair the harms of failed drug war policies, and build a world that embraces the full humanity of people, regardless of their relationship to drugs.

We know that recriminalization will disproportionately impact the people who are already the most vulnerable. Most people who will be arrested are experiencing homelessness and poverty. They won’t be connected to the housing services they most desperately need. Instead, they will enter a long cycle of arrest and release back to the street.

Friend, we need you to take action to help turn the tide, reduce harm, and advance drug policies rooted in compassion in Oregon and across the country. ​​​​​​
