    Next week 'Unlikely Allies' is premiering at the Chinese Theater! This film captures my journey, from music to justice reform. It's a deeply personal story, featuring incredible moments and powerful voices. Check out this exclusive clip where @SnoopDogg and I talk about reform.

    What does that have to do with a police officer sticking his knee in his neck and killing him?

    You haven’t changed a single marijuana policy yet. Waiting on your DEA. They could still say no. And your admin hasn’t released a single marijuana offender from prison. Pardoning misdemeanors doesn’t actually do anything! Those convictions do not carry collateral consequences or

    Trump supports cannabis reform and is going to reschedule it.

    Nobody goes to jail for use or simple possession. But those imprisoned federally for marijuana felonies shouldn’t be forced to serve out the remainder of their decades long sentences either so please commute their sentences as you promised when you were running for president.

    NEW: President Joe Biden could decriminalize marijuana and fulfill key campaign promises without waiting for Congress. @kylejaeger from @MarijuanaMoment explains.

    SAFE is still on track. Will be introduced in December. Final language will likely be released before end of the month.

    Thank you, Jessica! It’s sad to hear from those who say they believe in second chances. I would never refuse my pardon, and I’m extremely l grateful to @realDonaldTrump giving me a real second chance and for the many more that are coming.
    Anyone criticizing the formerly incarcerated grassroots advocates who got pardons or telling them to “refuse” the pardon is a fake activist in my mind. How do you believe in abolition and ending collateral consequences then talk crap about someone for getting a second chance?

    President Biden pardoned his son Hunter and 8 turkeys—but hasn’t released a single marijuana prisoner, despite his campaign promise. In our op-ed, Edwin Rubis, who is serving 40 years for a nonviolent marijuana offense, and myself call out this hypocrisy.
