Nadler, Blumenauer, Lee, Jackson Lee and Velázquez Reintroduce Comprehensive Marijuana Reform Legislation
Statement
Issues: Drugs
"I am proud to reintroduce the MORE Act. As more states continue to legalize marijuana, we must change federal law to reverse failed policies criminalizing marijuana. The MORE Act would decriminalize marijuana at the federal level, remove the needless burden of marijuana convictions on so many Americans, and invest in the communities that have been disproportionately harmed by the War on Drugs. I thank my colleagues, Representatives Barbara Lee and Earl Blumenauer, Co-Chairs of the Congressional Cannabis Caucus, as well as Representatives Sheila Jackson Lee and Nydia Velázquez for their work on this legislation as we continue to push for this much-needed change."
