Cannabis Law Reform Support Rally in Wellington

Patients, caregivers and supporters will gather at parliament 26th October from 11am in support of the new Labour-led Governmentscannabis law reform policies.

The Labour Party have promised to:

• Introduce legislation to make medicinal cannabis available for people with terminal illnesses or in chronic pain.

• Hold a binding referendum on legalising cannabis for personal use by or at the 2020 election.

• Increase funding for alcohol and drug addiction services.

• Ensure drug use is treated as a health issue.

Supporters are also appealing on Police Commissioner Mike Bush to immediately introduce a moratorium on cannabis arrests for patients and their supporters while legislation is introduced.

Bring your friends, dress to impress, be polite and respectful. This is a show of support not a demonstration or protest. Bring your smiles, angry people stay home.
