John -- There is so much talk about the recent House approval of the Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement (MORE) Act. If passed, the MORE Act would decriminalize cannabis and expunge the records of those facing or living with cannabis related drug charges.

This may sound like a huge win for progressive criminal justice reform, but the truth of the matter is, the Democratic establishment knew it had no chance of Senate approval, or becoming law.

The failed and racist ‘war on drugs’ should be corrected with REAL legislation that will pass both houses, because there is real work to be done to right the wrongs of the past.

Brand New Congress rejects platitudes and broken promises, we are fighting to form a Congress that will write and pass real bills to correct egregious legislation, and we need you with us. [[link removed]]

In 2020, several ballot measures promoting criminal justice reform passed in a handful of states, both red and blue. In addition, two-thirds of Americans approve of fully legalized cannabis. That said, Congress continues to vote and act against the will of the American people. Why? Because these lawmakers have been bought and paid for by private prison executives, big pharma companies and law enforcement unions.

That is why our coalition at Brand New Congress refuses to take a dime of corporate PAC money and will never be held hostage to special interest.

Imagine a Congress that is 100% funded by the people.
