Letter from Prop 19

Dear Friend,

When our opponents come after one of our allies, we've got to be ready to fight back. That's why I'm writing you today.

Tomorrow morning, our opponents are holding a press conference in Sacramento to call for the resignation of Alice Huffman, president of the California NAACP, because of the organization's bold endorsement of Proposition 19.

We've got to make sure the NAACP knows we've got their back. Will you take a moment and show your support for Alice Huffman and the NAACP?

We're proud to have the support of the California NAACP because they not only know that the war on drugs has failed -- but that its failure has disproportionately affected African Americans. Arrests of African Americans are double, triple, and quadruple the rate of whites in California's 25 biggest counties, even though studies show that African Americans consume marijuana at lower rates than whites.

You'd think with statistics like these that the NAACP's support would be unquestioned. But the stats have always been on our side -- and that hasn't stopped the politics-as-usual crowd from distorting the facts.

This year, when we pass Prop 19, the dialogue will completely change. But until then, we've got to be bold and stand strong when our allies come under attack.

Please sign our petition in support of Alice Huffman and the NAACP. Let's collect the thousands of signatures we need to show our allies and opponents alike that we'll stand up and be heard when attacks come our way.

Thank you so much for your support.

Sincerely,

Jeff Jones
Proponent, Yes on 19
