Page "Students for Sensible Drug Policy" Paragraph 13

Representative Mark Souder of Indiana is very famous among the elite SSDP social circles as the author of the Aid Elimination Penalty in the Higher Education Act Amendments of 1998.

Souder is seen, to well-informed members of SSDP, as one of the foremost proposers of insensible marijuana policies.

Souder has declined to engage in a debate with SSDP members regarding the Aid Elimination Penalty, and instead relies on ad hominem attacks calling the organization " nonsensical " and " legalizers ".

The " legalizers " comment came in a Dear Colleague letter written by Souder supporting the Higher Education Act Aid Elimination Penalty.

SSDP has since responded with a professionally-written letter signed by over fifteen other organizations who also oppose the Aid Elimination Penalty including ; the United Methodist Church, the National Education Association, the World Summit on the Information Society, and the American Federation of Teachers.
