In fact, we are specifically referring to communities and people who can verify that they were disproportionately harmed for decades by, or suffered injustice from, the State’s marijuana policy enforcement activities. Not only was the enforcement overwhelmingly racialized in the past, the design and implementation of current marijuana policy is as well. This economic WAR continues to plague and traumatize its Survivors, but you NOW have the power to LEAD a repair of the economic injustice, and to meaningfully help heal this generational harm. In your 2024 legislative priorities, we urge you to end the delay and denial of justice by adopting these Policy Recommendations. #StopTheNewDrugWar #CloseRacialWealthGaps #HealTraumatizedCommunities #DrugWarReparations /// RIGHT CLICK ABOVE IMAGE, SAVE TO YOUR COMPUTER, THEN SHARE THESE POLICY RECOMMENDATIONS WITH YOUR TEXT MESSAGE, SOCIAL MEDIA AND EMAIL NETWORKS |
