With 2 weeks having passed since the delivery of Jacki's first letter to Rep. Vukmir click here, her second letter was emailed to Rep. Vukmir's office this morning.

Will Rep. Vukmir continue to ignore Jacki's letters on behalf of Wisconsin patients, or will she have the integrity to respond this time?

An open letter to Rep. Leah Vukmir, R-Wauwatosa

Wednesday, May 2, 2007

Rep. Leah Vukmir
Chair, Assembly Health and Healthcare Reform Committee
Room 107 West
State Capitol
P.O. Box 8953
Madison, WI 53708

Dear Rep. Vukmir,

On Wednesday, April 18, 2007, ten friends and supporters visited your office and delivered a letter from me responding to your hurtful and prejudgmental comments about medical cannabis in the April 10, 2007 Wisconsin State Journal. The letter asked you several questions, which to date, you have not yet answered. Once again, here are the questions:

1) Is your public statement that you will continue to be in opposition to medical Cannabis/Marijuana ONLY your feeling, or are you speaking on behalf of the entire Assembly?

2) You also spoke of concerns about its safety. Please share your research with the people of Wisconsin.

3) Are you doing the will of the people, or Rep. Leah Vukmir's will? Do you represent the views of the majority in your district?

4) Please share what drugs "may soon be approved" and when?

5) What is your definition of "soon"?

I and many other Wisconsin patients, supporters and interested parties await your response.

Sincerely,

Jacki Rickert
Founder of Is My Medicine Legal YET? (IMMLY)
Mondovi, WI 54755
