How many ppl get hit with federal charges for weed :jbhmm:

This primarily benefits weed businesses/dispensaries not the avg weed smoker :comeon:
Almost zero. Typically people moving insane weight get fed charges, like shipping in tons via boat and getting busted by the Coast Guard.

Bad for black people mentally but at least it helps reduce incarceration

"but stopped short of advising that it should be entirely removed from the Controlled Substances Act."

Only way this shyt gets legalized in Texas
:aicmon:

He can't just issue an Executive Order?

Can't do it via Executive Order. It can only come from Congress.

Although the President cannot directly remove marijuana from control under federal controlled substances law, he might order executive agencies to consider either altering the scheduling of marijuana or changing their enforcement approach.

If the President sought to act in the area of controlled substances regulation, he would likely do so by executive order. However, the Supreme Court has held that the President has the power to issue an executive order only if authorized by “an act of Congress or . . . the Constitution itself.” The CSA does not provide a direct role for the President in the classification of controlled substances, nor does Article II of the Constitution grant the President power in this area (federal controlled substances law is an exercise of Congress’s power to regulate interstate commerce). Thus, it does not appear that the President could directly deschedule or reschedule marijuana by executive order.

Although the President may not unilaterally deschedule or reschedule a controlled substance, he does possess a large degree of indirect influence over scheduling decisions. The President could pursue the appointment of agency officials who favor descheduling, or use executive orders to direct DEA, HHS, and FDA to consider administrative descheduling of marijuana. The notice-and-comment rulemaking process would take time, and would be subject to judicial review if challenged, but could be done consistently with the CSA’s procedural requirements. In the alternative, the President could work with Congress to pursue descheduling through an amendment to the CSA.

No politician's opinion on weed, Democrat or Republican from 1989 matters in the current era. Since 1989 there has been plenty of research, discovery, analysis on weed along with a culture shift that's more welcoming toward weed. Based on all of those things, what matters is their current opinion based on the current information at hand.

you seriously dont think people are serving out these 40,50,60,70 year sentences? are you retarded?

you think they just snapped their fingers and released these people?

Where are you getting the data from that millions are doing 50-70 year sentences for weed? You just pulling numbers out your ass especially in 2023.

You out of date with the current political climate.

"We must stop Trump! He uses the power of the presidency to do whatever he wants!" :hula:"Joe can't just do whatever he wants, that's against the rules."

Biden is doing what he wants. It will be entirely half-measures and watered down. That's what he likes, that's his style. The purpose of a system is what it does.

Step in the right direction. Not understanding why he couldn't completely decriminalize it. Kinda silly that he's p*ssy-footing with it.
See above. Why doesn't he do that? He does not want to.
