    [Action Alert]
    Nearly three million people have been displaced from their homes because of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Many have lost everything. Yet federal laws prohibit these victims from receiving welfare, food stamps, public housing, student loans and other benefits if they have a drug law conviction. People who have lost everything should not be denied public assistance just because they were convicted of a drug offense sometime in their past.

    surely to deny these people aid in these circumstances is s cruel and unusual punishment and clearly against human rights laws?

    can non-US citizens lobby the UNHCR about this? this is not acceptable in any civilised jurisdiction.

    Auch wenn du am Abgrund stehst, und gar nichts mehr verstehst,
    wachen Engel über dich, halten dich im Licht und lassen dich nie fallen.
