Just got this in my email...
***Stop the House RAVE Act***
Rep. Lamar Smith (TX) has introduced a House version of the RAVE Act. It is almost exactly the same as the Senate version. The House Judiciary Committee will most likely be voting on the bill NEXT WEEK (the week of the 7th). If it passes out of Committee as is, the RAVE Act could become law THIS YEAR, which means federal prosecutors will have the power they need to shut down raves, hemp festivals, hip hop concerts, and other events they don't like.
We are asking voters to call their Representative, as part of a national call-in to stop the RAVE Act.
What to Do:
1) Please forward this e-mail to your friends, family, and co-workers.
2) Find out if your Representative is on the House Judiciary Committee by going to: http://www.house.gov/judiciary/members.htm
Not sure who your Representative is? Find out at: http://www.house.gov/writerep/
3) If your Representative is on the House Judiciary Committee call them on Monday, October 7th and tell them to VOTE AGAINST THE RAVE ACT. THE RAVE ACT IS A THREAT TO PUBLIC HEALTH, FREE SPEECH, AND INNOCENT BUSINESS OWNERS. You can contact your Representative by calling the Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121.
4) If you haven't faxed your Senators about the RAVE Act, please do so by going to:
