Title: 

Vote possible Monday: Urge your N.Y. state senator to support S. 8427

Message: 

It all comes down to this.

The New York legislature will likely return for special session on Monday, November 29, and give us one more chance to pass medical marijuana legislation before the year is up. We are very close to having the 32 votes we need to pass, and every vote counts.

Please e-mail your senator and call her/him TODAY and ask your senator to come out in support of S. 8427, and to vote for it in the special session.

Do not let this last, best opportunity to help seriously ill patients slip away.  Please also urge other New Yorkers to act now before it is too late. Forward this message to at least 10 New Yorkers, post the link to Facebook ( http://www.mpp.org/states/new-york/alerts/vote-possible-monday-urge.html ), and otherwise spread the word. We must not let another year go by with patients criminalized for treating their illnesses.

Thank you for your support and compassion.
