Take notes: New York City just threw out 3,000 weed cases

[Marijuana Policy Project @MarijuanaPolicy]

This is encouraging. For decades, people of color have been disproportionately impacted by senseless marijuana policies. We need to actively work to right these wrongs and put an end to the collateral consequences that too many people still experience.

A decades-old marijuana conviction or outstanding warrant can keep a person from getting a job and an apartment. For thousands of New Yorkers, that will soon change. https://t.co/nLRHDuh13D

If this administration refuses to keep untraceable, 3D-printed guns out of the hands of dangerous people, Congress must step up and enact common-sense legislation to do just that.
