President Biden Pardons Marijuana Possession

President Biden Pardons Marijuana

President Biden has declared he is pardoning every person convicted of simple marijuana possession under federal regulation. He’s now urging governors to excuse those convicted on state possession indictments.

“Sending people to jail for possessing marijuana has upended too many lives — for conduct that is legal in many states,” President Biden tweeted on 10/06/2022. “That’s before you address the clear racial disparities around prosecution and conviction. Today, we begin to right these wrongs.”

It remains completely prohibited in a handful of states. The federal government will certainly stop charging any person with basic property starting on Thursday, officials claimed.
