Dear Friend,

Did you know that every 31 seconds a person in this country is arrested for simply possessing drugs?

Think about it. … By the time you finish reading this email, multiple people could be in handcuffs.

That is unacceptable. And that is why we need strong allies in our movement. DPA’s dedicated members power our work to advance cutting-edge policies that are transforming the approach to drug laws in this country, in real time.

Every year, the U.S. spends $47 billion enforcing cruel, outdated drug laws. Rather than using that money to support communities and address the root causes of problematic drug use, it’s being used as a punitive tool of oppression.

If you’re like me and want to dismantle this unjust war on drugs, then please join the Drug Policy Alliance today.

And if you join right now, your gift will be TRIPLE matched—up to $25,000—to help us advocate for lifesaving drug policy reform in 2023.

As the managing director of policy at DPA, I am an expert and strategist in the areas of harm reduction, treatment, and criminal justice as it relates to drug policy.

And I will tell you, these outdated drug laws are devastating families and violating human rights—and the impacts are far-reaching and long-lasting.

Students are turned down from colleges or refused financial aid, people are denied jobs and housing, and immigrants are deprived of the right to live with their families.

These punishments begin cycles of trauma that can impact generations.

That’s why I hope we can count on you to join us today, as we build a more just society in which the use and regulation of drugs are grounded in health, equity, and human rights.

And remember, when you join today your gift will be TRIPLE matched to maximize the power of your generosity.

Thanks to everyday like you, we are changing minds and shifting policy to treat drug use as a health issue, not a criminal problem. We are taking steps to end the overdose crisis. We are moving closer to ending federal marijuana prohibition. And we are addressing the lifelong consequences of criminalization.

We are building momentum and winning drug policy reform victories, but there is still so much more to do.

Please, if you can, join today. Together, we will lead the way to advance innovative and compassionate policies that are transforming the approach to drugs in this country.
