- Biden Introduces New RAVE Act!!!
by Drug Policy Alliance
Several weeks ago we warned you that last year's RAVE
Act was incorporated into Sen. Daschle's domestic security
bill (S. 22). It gets worse. Senators Biden (D-DE), Grassley
(R-IA), Feinstein (D-CA), and Lieberman (D-CT) have
introduced it as a stand-alone bill (S. 226 - which is not
posted on thomas.loc.gov yet. We'll link from our site,
http://www.drugpolicy.org , once it becomes available). It's
not called the RAVE Act. Nor does it have a findings section
talking about raves or electronic music. It's now called the
Illicit Drug Anti-Proliferation Act. DON'T BE FOOLED! It's
the RAVE Act in new clothing. If enacted, it would harm
innocent business owners, undermine public safety, and
stifle free speech and musical expression.
Your help is needed to stop this disguised RAVE Act
from becoming law!!!
*** Fax your two Senators. Tell them to oppose S. 226
the Illicit Drug Anti-Proliferation Act. You can use our
convenient system:
http://actioncenter.drugpolicy.org/action/
Or find your Senators's fax number at:
http://www.senate.gov
*** Please forward this action alert to your friends
and family. The Senate needs to know that voters find this
bill unacceptable.
For more information on the RAVE Act and S. 226 see:
http://www.nomoredrugwar.org/music/rave_act.htm
Please consider making a donation to help the Drug
Policy Alliance continue to fight for our rights:

We need your support to stop this bill!
