Today, I’m bringing together the top leaders and advocates of New Jersey's cannabis community to talk about the impact prohibition has had on our economy, our judicial system, and our communities.
I stand with medical professionals, researchers, activists, and compassionate people all over our nation who know that we need to change course on marijuana.
Our nation’s outdated stance on marijuana results in 660,000 arrests and $3.6 billion in taxpayer costs every year. We’re wasting that money when it could be used to target violent crime, serial recidivists, and crimes that impact our most vulnerable neighbors. Even worse, we’re tearing families apart.
I released my full policy stance on cannabis because voters deserve to know where we stand. You can read it here.
If you agree that we should legalized, regulate, and tax marijuana, that we should expunge low-level offenses so our neighbors can get their lives back, and that it’s long past time for us to right this injustice, I need you on my team.
