You Can Help Legalize Medical Marijuana in SC: Contacting the Media is Easy & Effective

The tide of public opinion regarding medical marijuana and decriminalization in general is clearly turning in our favor. You can help us take advantage of this growing trend by contacting the media in your part of the state.

"Letters to the Editor" are an easy and effective tool, 
even if you have never written one before.

  • Step 1 - WRITE YOUR LETTER
Your letter does not have to be long or complicated. Just state your opinion in favor of safe and legal access to medical marijuana in SC and offer some reasons for your support. Since we have science and justice on our side, we don't need to go on a rant. Just make your point and trust that the more we get it out there, the more mainstream acceptance we will garner.

  • Step 2 - SEND IT TO THE MEDIA
This is where technology can really come in handy. In addition to sending out traditional snail mail, you can now reach newspapers, radio and TV stations, and other media outlets with just a few clicks of the mouse. 

Here is a useful list of SC Media Contacts, including phone numbers, addresses, web sites, Facebook pages, Twitter accounts and more.

  • Step 3 - LET US KNOW WHEN YOU GET PUBLISHED!
By working together, encouraging each other, and sharing our resources, we can help suffering patients get the relief they need and deserve!
