DPA received a lot of good media hits this week. First, there was this good USA Today article quoting me on the government's latest effort to peek into your medicine cabinet. Then there was a great Associated Press story quoting me and several other drug policy reform advocates on the failure of the war on drugs (the early version of the story - which doesn't quote me - is what was picked up in a lot of papers). Then there was this great blog post by Scott Henson and this short blurb by Andrew Sullivan. Today, I awoke to three great pieces: Debra Saunders details DPA's plans to reign in the federal Byrne grant program in the San Francisco Chronicle. Ellis Henican discusses DPA's outreach to the conservative base in Newsday. And the New York Times quotes DPA's Executive Director, Ethan Nadelmann, on why coca tea should be part of the international commodities market.
