Make Your Voice Heard
Make Your Voice Heard
Louisiana’s medical cannabis laws are shaped by elected officials. Hearing directly from patients and constituents helps legislators understand what is working, what is not, and where reform is needed.
Contacting your representative is one of the most effective ways to participate in the process.
Why Reach Out to A Legislator?
Many legislators hear regularly from agencies and industry groups, but far less often from patients. Personal messages help ground policy decisions in real experience.
Reaching out allows you to:
Share how the current medical cannabis program affects you
Express support for patient-focused reform
Encourage consideration of legislation like HB 707
Help ensure patient voices are part of the record
You do not need to be an expert to contact your representative. Being a constituent matters.
What To Say:
Your message does not need to be long. A clear, respectful note is enough.
You may want to include:
That you live in the representative’s district or in Louisiana
That you are a medical cannabis patient, caregiver, or supporter
Why access, affordability, or program reform matters to you personally
Your support for the reintroduction of HB 707

Subject: Support for Medical Cannabis Reform and HB 707
Dear Representative [Last Name],
My name is [Your Name], and I live in [City or Parish], Louisiana. I am writing to express my support for medical cannabis reform and the reintroduction of HB 707.
Louisiana’s medical cannabis program has helped many patients, but it still leaves gaps around access, affordability, and availability. As a medical cannabis patient, caregiver, or supporter, these issues directly affect people like me and others in my community.
HB 707 represents an opportunity to strengthen the existing program by improving patient access, addressing supply limitations, and creating a more sustainable framework for the future. I respectfully ask that you consider supporting its reintroduction and listening to patient voices as this conversation moves forward.
Thank you for your time and for representing our district. I appreciate your consideration.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
[City], Louisiana
