How do you meet with your state representatives and reps? How do I write to Michigans about changing a law?

jessica asked:

I can get a lot of signatures on a petition if that helps. What I want to do is make it mandatory for jails and prisons to administer Methadone provided that the person arrested is 1. in a Methadone program when arrested 2. if the jail cannot supply the Methadone, someone from the clinic or the prisoner’s family must bring it daily 3. the prisoner is responsible for all costs and 4. that the person wasn’t arrested on a drug offense. As of now, it is up to the individual jails and I don’t think that’s right. Methadone withdrawl is cruel and unusual punishment and most people would rather have corporal punishment. It is also true that if a person is suddenly taken off of Methadone that they could die. I would even be willing to suggest that at the very least they allow the prisoner to be detoxed at a reasonable pace. Also, many people WILL immediately go back to Heroin once they are released. I’d like to make a speech and address it. I’m very articulate and educated so what next?

What is the laws on Prescription pill counts at Methadone Clinics?

J M asked:

I am on methadone at the Discovery House in Bangor, they make me bring in my scheduled prescriptions twice a month so they can count them. I do not like doing this as ppl. who are not really trying to recover from addiction know that you have something scheduled because they see them counting the pills. Then alot of ppl. ask to buy them and its very annoying and uncomfortable. They make us have locked boxes to take methadone off the property why should we have to take out prescriptions from other doctors in the clinic, and why do they feel the need to count them. I tried to take in the printout that the pharmacy gives me but they said they wanted to count them. If i didnt comply i would be terminated from the program.
I am talking about prescriptions that i get from my psychiatrist, like Klonopin and Adderal because i also have mental illness. Hey heath put that in your pipe and smoke it, not only am i an addict but i am mentally ill from years of abuse at the hands of MEN in my family and MEN in general, is that my fault too, will you cry me a river now? Were you abused your whole life, molested by a couple at age 8, beat by your own drunk father every day, abandoned by your mother, before you go running your mouth you should get all the facts,! Is it my fault i was molested? Raped? Abused and cant deal with the pain so i used drugs to take it away, you are a pompous jerk and bad Karma will come your way if you keep judging ppl. You could get hurt tomorrow and get addicted to pain meds, i wouldnt wish that on anyone but i wont cry you a river either as i wasnt asking you too for me. Oh and by the way i pay for my methadone at 100.00 per week so i can stay clean, so im getting nothing for free, aho
