Oppose "Rave"
'Reducing American's Vulnerability to Ecstasy'
is what they decided to call it.
Senate to Declare War on Raves
No nightclub owner, promoter, or event coordinator is safe
Bill could halt musical events such as raves
The Senate is poised to pass legislation that would give federal prosecutors new powers to shut down raves or other musical events and punish innocent business men and women for hosting or promoting them. The bill, known as the Reducing American's Vulnerability to Ecstasy Act (RAVE Act), was just introduced in the Senate on June 18th and has already passed the Senate Judiciary Committee. It is moving VERY rapidly and could be passed by the Senate as early as next week. Worse still, the Senate leadership considers this draconian drug war bill to be so uncontroversial that they are trying to pass it under "unanimous consent" rules, which will mean no debate and no real vote. It is absolutely vital that your Senators here from you today. They need to know that this bill is a danger to civil liberties and is unacceptable.
What can we do?
Call your Senators and tell them to stop S. 2633, the Reducing American's Vulnerability to Ecstasy Act from becoming law. Tell them that innocent business owners shouldn't be punished for the crimes of their customers. Tell them this bill has dangerous anti-civil liberties provisions that they need to be aware of, and this bill deserves serious debate.
You can contact your Senators through the Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121. To find out who your Senators are go to:
