The Portland Observer
Federal
Marijuana
Ban Targeted
Wyden first
to join new
legalization effort
Oregon’s Ron Wyden has be-
come the first U.S. senator to
cosponsor Sen. Cory Booker’s
landmark bill to end the federal
prohibition on marijuana.
Booker, a black Democrat from
New Jersey,
has
pro-
posed the
Marijuana
Justice Act
to reverse
decades of
failed drug
policy that
has dispro-
portionately Ron Wyden
impacted
low-income individuals and peo-
ple of color. It would remove mar-
ijuana from the list of controlled
substances, making it legal at the
federal level.
“Jeff Sessions and the Trump
administration are still trying to
fight a 1980s drug war that is so-
cially unjust, economically back-
ward and against the will of the
American people,” Wyden said.
“I’m proud to join forces with
Senator Booker to fight this ad-
ministration’s attempts to shift
our country into reverse when it
comes to federal marijuana policy.
It’s more important now than ever
to update outdated policies, right
the wrongs against communities
of color, and continue our work
to lift up the voices of the many
Americans who are speaking out
in favor of legalization.”
Booker said he was thrilled
Wyden has joined him on this
groundbreaking bill.
“It’s long past due that we re-
form our nation’s deeply broken
drug laws, which disproportion-
ately harm low-income commu-
nities and communities of color.
This is more than a marijuana
reform bill – it’s about ensuring
equal justice for all, and we won’t
stop fighting until we fix our bro-
ken criminal justice system.”
In addition to making marijua-
na legal at the federal level, the
legislation would also incentiv-
ize states through federal funds
to change their marijuana laws if
those laws are shown to have a
disproportionate effect on low-in-
come individuals and/or people of
color.
The bill is retroactive and
would apply to those already serv-
ing time behind bars for marijua-
na-related offenses, providing for
a judge’s review of marijuana sen-
tences.
