Happy 4/20, John!

Today is a joyous occasion to not only celebrate weed, but to seriously
commit ourselves to full marijuana legalization and ending the War on
Drugs.

^^^ That’s pretty much what the vibe was like at the 2021 Pennsylvania
Cannabis Festival held in Kutztown over the weekend.

Founded in Scranton in 2015, the annual festival is an *amazing* community
event. Its mission is to end cannabis prohibition in Pennsylvania.

We had some high times at the festival (to be clear, the last time I
smoked weed in earnest was at Burning Man in 1999).

Despite taking place in one of Pennsylvania’s reddest counties, thousands
of Pennsylvanians came out to celebrate. After all, legal weed is
supported by nearly 70% of Americans (and it's fully legal in 17 states +
DC)!

I believe that weed should be legal, safe, and pure for medicinal and
recreational use by adults across the country. Legal weed is good for
farmers, small businesses, veterans, and people suffering from chronic
pain.

Some people wore costumes. I wore my neck gaiter.

Along with legalizing weed for recreational and medicinal use, it is
urgent that we expunge all marijuana records and release all those
incarcerated for using the plant. I want to be very clear that marijuana
prohibition in America is a grave racial injustice.

The data is stark: Black people are arrested for violating marijuana
possession laws at nearly four times the rates of white people. It's time
to elect leaders who know that's beyond unacceptable — and who have the
courage to speak up and do something to right these wrongs.

As I have said, fighting for legal weed in Pennsylvania and across the
country is the right choice. Most importantly, from a social justice and
equality standpoint, when we legalize weed we can stop over 20,000 unjust
arrests across Pennsylvania each year and work toward ending the War on
Drugs.

Look, John, I’ve always
supported legal weed. Always will. Most Senate candidates don’t make legal
weed a central part of their campaign platform, but I am.

And with your support, I’ll be the LOUDEST (and tbh, probably the tallest)
champion for legal weed and marijuana justice in the U.S. Senate.

So in honor of 4/20, I am respectfully asking:

[ [link removed] ]Will you please chip in $4.20, $42.00, or any amount directly to our
campaign today? From Pennsylvania to the U.S. Senate, your donation powers
our fight for legal weed and an end to the War on Drugs.

Thanks, John. I’m so grateful
for your continued support. 🙏

John

John Fetterman
Lieutenant Governor of Pennsylvania

 

 

P.S. I also met Lance the Weed Dog at the festival. He’s a very good boy,
and today is his birthday.
