Talk Less, Act MORE
<p>Welcome to Potcast! On today's episode, I talk about the Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement (MORE) Act, a bill regarding cannabis decriminalization in the United States. I give a brief overview of the main components of the bill, and what they address, as well as the current dynamics in the US Congress, and how they might influence a vote in the Senate. </p> <p>Sources:</p> <p>ACLU. “Report: The War on Marijuana in Black and White.” American Civil Liberties Union, June 2013, www.aclu.org/report/report-war-marijuana-black-and-white?redirect=criminal-law-reform%2Fwar-marijuana-black-and-white.</p> <p>Charles, Nick. “Black Entrepreneurs Struggle to Join Legal Weed Industry.” NBCNews.com, NBCUniversal News Group, 11 Feb. 2020, www.nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/black-entrepreneurs-struggle-join-legal-weed-industry-n1132351.</p> <p>Cochrane, Emily. “Staring Down Deadline, Congress Nears $900 Billion Stimulus Deal.” The New York Times, The New York Times, 16 Dec. 2020, www.nytimes.com/2020/12/16/us/politics/congress-stimulus-bill.html?campaign_id=9.</p> <p>“Controlled Substances Act.” Wikipedia, Wikimedia Foundation, 15 Dec. 2020, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Controlled_Substances_Act.</p> <p>Edmondson, Catie. “House Passes Landmark Bill Decriminalizing Marijuana.” The New York Times, The New York Times, 4 Dec. 2020, www.nytimes.com/2020/12/04/us/politics/house-marijuana.html.</p> <p>Grinspoon, Peter. “Medical Marijuana.” Harvard Health Blog, 15 Apr. 2020, www.health.harvard.edu/blog/medical-marijuana-2018011513085.</p> <p>“Marijuana Tax Revenue and Education.” Colorado Department of Education, June 2019.</p> <p>“McConnell Says US Needs to Provide Protection for Businesses and Employees.” Fox News, FOX News Network, 28 Apr. 2020, video.foxnews.com/v/6152708313001?campaign_id=9.</p> <p>McIntosh, Kriston, et al. “Examining the Black-White Wealth Gap.” Brookings, Brookings, 27 Feb. 2020, www.brookings.edu/blog/up-front/2020/02/27/examining-the-black-white-wealth-gap/.</p> <p>Parkinson, John. “What Congress' Vote to Decriminalize Marijuana Means for You.” ABC News, ABC News Network, 4 Dec. 2020, abcnews.go.com/Politics/congress-vote-decriminalize-marijuana-explained/story?id=74542395.</p> <p>Stracqualursi, Veronica, and Lauren Dezenski. “House Passes Bill Decriminalizing Marijuana at Federal Level.” CNN, Cable News Network, 4 Dec. 2020, www.cnn.com/2020/12/04/politics/house-vote-more-act-marijuana-legislation/index.html.</p>
