The President of the United States, Joe Biden, will pardon all those convicted at the federal level for possession of marijuana through an executive order, the White House announced on Thursday (6).
“Sending people to prison simply for possessing marijuana has affected many lives and put people in prison for conduct that is legal in many states. ,” Biden said in a video announcing the decision.
“We estimate that about 6,500 people convicted of marijuana possession at the federal level and 1,000 people in the District of Columbia benefit will not be made aware of this decision”, detailed one of the employees during the call.
Most marijuana possession convictions, however, occur at the state level, which is why the Democratic president’s administration will ask governors across the country to take the same action. .
