Dear Friend,

The government shutdown looks likely to end soon. Families, advocates, and everyone else concerned with real public health needs to make sure that a ban on hemp-derived intoxicants like Delta-8 THC happens ([link removed]) .

That’s why you need to click this link NOW to tell your Congress member to support the ban! ([link removed])

If you only write one letter to Congress in your lifetime, make it this one. Public health stands on the cusp of a historic triumph or a massive defeat.

Federal lawmakers have a crucial opportunity to rectify a legislative error in the 2018 Farm Bill that has enabled an addiction industry to hurt kids and families across the country. So NOW is the most pivotal time to act ([link removed]) , when the stakes are highest. And as the government shutdown has made clear, no stakes are higher than the health of our children.

Again, urging Congress to take action NOW could not be MORE important. Click here to let them know. ([link removed])

Thanks to our grassroots army and supporters like you, we have the opportunity to make our voices heard and make this win possible. Take action NOW and ask your Congress member to back the hemp-derived THC ban. ([link removed]) We are counting on you to ensure that public health is prioritized over corporate profits across the nation.

Thank you for your support.

In partnership,

The SAM Action Team
