US President Joe Biden has made a big change in the country's policy regarding marijuana. He has waived the sentences of thousands of people convicted under federal law for drug possession. However, an important point in this announcement is that this order applies only to those from whom ordinary marijuana was obtained.
Guilty acquitted in marijuana case
Joe Biden has said in a statement that he exonerates all those people from whom cases were filed after getting ordinary marijuana. He said that he directs the Attorney General to issue certificates of pardon to all those who come under this purview. Marijuana is illegal under federal law, even though states have moved toward legal use for recreational and medical purposes.
Marijuana is not a crime
As a candidate, Biden has stopped supporting the decriminalization of marijuana, but he favored moving toward demonetization. "Our failed approach to marijuana has disrupted the lives of many people," he said in a statement. It is time we correct these mistakes. Marijuana is a schedule drug, which means it is in the same category as drugs such as heroin and LSD. According to The Hill, federal government legislation has a high potential for abuse and no accepted medical value.
