It's Time to Heal: Urge President Biden to Grant "Federal Cannabis Clemency"

Target: President Joe Biden

The Last Prisoner Project, in partnership with a coalition of other activists, celebrities, and public figures, is calling on President Biden to continue to act on broad-based criminal justice and drug policy reform by granting clemency to then tens of thousands of individuals currently incarcerated due to — or otherwise unduly burdened by — federal cannabis-related convictions.


To: President Joe Biden
From: [Your Name]

President Biden —

I'm calling on you to begin to act on broad-based criminal justice and drug policy reform by granting clemency to then tens of thousands of individuals currently incarcerated due to — or otherwise unduly burdened by — federal cannabis-related convictions.

I, like the vast majority of Americans, am in favor of providing retroactive sentencing relief for so-called "cannabis offenders". As federal authorities currently have little authority to expunge, seal, and/or set aside federal cannabis-related convictions, clemency grants represent the only way to ensure relief for individuals with federal marijuana violations.

As you have repeatedly stressed, it's time for the nation to heal. Let's start by beginning to redress the harms of marijuana prohibition, an unjust and ineffective crusade that has destroyed millions of lives, devastated countless communities, and imperiled the health, safety, and prosperity of the entire country.

Thank you in advance for your consideration.
