Early on, I fought hard to ensure that people had access to marijuana for medical reasons. It became increasingly clear that the war on drugs was really a war on the poor and communities of color. These are the people who are going to jail for possession and recreational use, filling up our prisons and creating a lifetime of negative consequences for them.
Show lawmakers that we won’t stand for this systemic injustice any longer. [[link removed]]
It is time to legalize marijuana nationally. I believe all individuals incarcerated on marijuana charges should have their records expunged – a crucial and necessary next step. We need to give these folks their lives back.
SIGN HERE >> Marijuana legalization is a social justice issue. [[link removed]]
We must view this as an opportunity in our ongoing fight to achieve true economic and racial equity and as an important step in criminal justice reform. As Senator, I will make the legalization of marijuana a priority because I recognize that, both socially and economically, it is in everyone’s best interest to see this issue in our rearview mirror.
In Solidarity,
Betsy Sweet
