Talarico’s argument is simple: Stop treating marijuana like a crime. Legalize it. Regulate it. Tax it. Stop wasting police resources on low-level marijuana offenses. Clear the records of people whose lives have been derailed by nonviolent marijuana convictions.
Congratulations to ECU-endorsed Rep. Rashida Tlaib on her primary win for #MI12. She’s a fierce advocate for working people across the country and has been on the frontlines of the fight to get Big Money out of politics. We look forward to helping reelect her.
