Sean Bielat to guest on 96.9FM this Friday, June 1st, 2012 at 6pm ET.
Sean Bielet running for US Congress in MA came out in support of marijuana legalization in his last run but said it wasn't going to be much of an issue because his opponent, Barney Frank also supported it.
This time around? Bielet is running against Joe Kennedy who has not taken a stance on the issue.
Call into 96.9FM Boston Talks on Friday at 6pm and ask Candidate Bielet to make marijuana legalization an issue with Joe Kennedy.
Call in at 617-822-1969
Verizon Wireless: #969
Tell the candidate on the radio, "I'll vote/support Sean Bielet if you make marijuana legalization an issue in this campaign."

Huffington Post: Sean Bielet supports legalization
There is at least one area where Bielat and Frank will have little disagreement. "I'm a conservative, but I would say on drug issues I tend toward libertarian," he says, arguing that the war on drugs has been a total failure and that policy should focus on reducing the harm associated with drugs.
It makes no sense, he says, that coffee and alcohol are legal when other drugs aren't. Frank backs the legalization of marijuana and generally supports allowing individuals the freedom to do whatever they want, as long as it doesn't hurt others. "Barney's not bad on those issues," offers Bielat, saying he won't make it part of his campaign. "I don't need to beat my head against that particular wall."
