Women from all age groups and from all walks of life came out to
Colorado’s State Capitol in Denver to help launch the Women’s Marijuana
Movement.
Women’s Marijuana Movement
Jessica Corry is a mother, wife, lawyer, a conservative political
activist, and co-founder of the Women’s Marijuana Movement. She is not a
marijuana user; she is a proponent of common sense. Corry feels the
marijuana laws are unjust.
Mason Tvert, founder of SAFER, has worked with Corry on these issues
for some time and they decided that the time is right. “Mason and I have
talked about doing this for a long time and SAFER provided the critical
infrastructure support to make it happen,” says Corry. SAFER is a
national organization based in Denver that promotes marijuana as being a
safer alternative to alcohol and prescription drugs. |

With April marking National Alcohol Awareness Month, students across the country are encouraging their universities to authorize the use of marijuana as a safer alternative, rather than permitting students to choose the legal and most common party substance, alcohol.
A nationwide day of action was organized on April 1, by Safer Alternative for Enjoyable Recreation, also known as SAFER, in order to coincide with the start of Alcohol Awareness Month. Believed to have been a joke at first, many were convinced otherwise when 80 college campuses became involved in this campaign to promote marijuana as a safer option.
A national attempt is well on its way in order to urge universities to allow the use of marijuana, instead of alcohol, as a less harmful substance option.

Mothers for marijuana? There's a movement gaining momentum that asks
people to reconsider drug policies that punish pot users. A
Scottsdale mother is among those attending the Women's Marijuana
Movement press conference at the Colorado State Capitol. Supporters
say marijuana is a safer alternative to alcohol, which can lead to
crimes like domestic violence and sexual assault. They argue that
prohibiting marijuana actually makes us less safe. |
