Why would it apply to them?
"It does not apply to individuals who have been jailed for selling the drug, which is illegal under federal law, or other marijuana offenses such as driving under the influence of an illegal substance"
Biden pardons marijuana use nationwide. Here's what that means

The second one shouldn’t be.

This is a step in the right direction. But it’s weird you have to submit a form in order to have it officially pardoned? Very suspicious.

Umm, Biden is removing it from Schedule 1 too:
Biden’s Department of Health and Human Services proposed this week to move cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III, which the government defines as having a “moderate to low potential for physical and psychological dependence.” Other drugs in that category include anabolic steroids, ketamine and codeine mixed with aspirin or acetaminophen.
The recommendation still needs approval from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, an arm of Biden’s Justice Department, and then would go through regulatory review and public comment before taking effect, probably sometime next year. It could be changed, in either direction, by rules adopted by a future administration.
‘Game changer’: Biden moves to reclassify marijuana under federal law
In California and other states whose laws allow medical and personal use of cannabis, life for marijuana suppliers would become simpler and less expensive.

Meanwhile, Adderall is still a schedule II drug
But seriously, this is a massive step towards decriminalization. Like I said, it's chess not checkers. If you think Presidents *should* have broad power to change settled law, you actually want a dictatorship. I'm cool on that.
Why not decriminalize it nationwide and THEN pardon everyone locked up for it...this changes nothing if you keep it on the books... This is a hail Mary for black voter support we see through the ruse genocide joe
Why not just decriminalize it federally instead of tiptoeing around in an effort to win over voters?
Because the president can't decriminalize it federally, laws are set by Congress, not by the President. He's been trying to push decriminalization since he came to office, got the Democrats to pass it when they controlled the House, but Senate Republicans blocked it.
"Measures to reduce or eliminate restrictions have been rejected in Congress, most recently last year, when Biden first called for reclassifying the drug. Legislation to decriminalize cannabis won approval in the House, then controlled by Democrats, but died in the Senate."

Cool for who ever it helps
But they need to pardon who ever is in jail for selling it too
At least states where it’s legal should be considering that. Governors and mayors having press releases with middle aged cacs who got marijuana licenses is wild if your state jails are full of black people who got caught selling

The only people who say “Pot” are CAC boomers. What’s your old, white ass doin on this forum?
Even young CACs just straight up call it weed. You done snitched on yourself.
"It does not apply to individuals who have been jailed for selling the drug, which is illegal under federal law, or other marijuana offenses such as driving under the influence of an illegal substance"
People who were convicted for dealing drugs or driving under the influence should be pardoned on a case-by-case basis, not just blindly. It's only user/possession convictions that should automatically be eliminated across the board.
But that's just my opinion.
Uh…no

Who are not with interracial blood or in a interracial relationships/marriage.
THEN and only then does it count as helping black people.
Dudes be thinking Biden can hit a button and weed is decriminalized everywhere
Biden can hit a button and now gas is 2 dollars
It’s crazy how many people do not understand how the government works
And you don’t want that anyway, that’s how dictators prosper

Breh you do know it’s other branches of government that will block that like the 94 cowboys offensive line right?Why not decriminalize it nationwide and THEN pardon everyone locked up for it...
The way it’s set up the speaker of the house that’s a super evangelical will NOT bring it to vote
But I’m sure you know that right?
