As I’ve said before, no one should be in jail just for using or possessing marijuana. Today, I’m taking steps to end our failed approach. Allow me to lay them out.
First: I’m pardoning all prior federal offenses of simple marijuana possession. There are thousands of people who were previously convicted of simple possession who may be denied employment, housing, or educational opportunities as a result. My pardon will remove this burden.
Second: I’m calling on governors to pardon simple state marijuana possession offenses. Just as no one should be in a federal prison solely for possessing marijuana, no one should be in a local jail or state prison for that reason, either.
Third: We classify marijuana at the same level as heroin – and more serious than fentanyl. It makes no sense. I’m asking @SecBecerra and the Attorney General to initiate the process of reviewing how marijuana is scheduled under federal law.
I’d also like to note that as federal and state regulations change, we still need important limitations on trafficking, marketing, and underage sales of marijuana.
Sending people to jail for possessing marijuana has upended too many lives – for conduct that is legal in many states. That’s before you address the clear racial disparities around prosecution and conviction. Today, we begin to right these wrongs.
What about the crisis In our child welfare department?? Case workers are letting our kids fall through the cracks, falsifying reports and putting our kids in danger.
I'd like to take a moment today to talk about an urgent crisis facing Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and Montana: some salmon and steelhead stocks of the Columbia Basin are on the verge of extinction. (1/14)
Something that has always stuck with me is a tweet I saw about saying “no” In my opinion, children shouldn’t be forced to greet or hug individuals if they don’t want to, this goes for family members as well It’s ok to say no if you don’t want someone to touch you
I don't care if I know you or you're a member of my party. If you're attacking trans kids or abuse survivors or sex workers, I'm out. Hate has no home here. I don't debate the dignity of others' lives. You don't get a Twitter discussion for concern trolling, you get an unfollow.
Child Sex Abuse is the dirty secret of the perpetrator, NOT the survivor. I have no shame, I hold no secrets. I was just a kid - like you.......all I ever wanted was to be believed and shown empathy. #childsexabuse #survivors
To any survivor reading this: we believe you. You’re not alone. We support you.
You got shit on your nose for putting it where it don't belong
You don't even make sense kid if you knew it wasn't your business why tf you comment
