The decades-long war on marijuana is slowly ending as the Biden Administration has taken a step toward reclassifying marijuana as a less dangerous drug. More than 50 years since then-President Nixon declared a war on drugs, the United States has spent $47 billion combating drug use, with 15.7 million people arrested on marijuana charges in just the last two decades. This week on What’s America Thinking, host Julia Manchester dives deep into this change with Executive Director and General Counsel of the Last Prisoner Project, Sarah Gersten, and Director of Advocacy, Stephanie Shepard.
What’s America Thinking? is a lively, informative show that leans into why Americans are so fed up with the government and its inability to make their lives better. We’ll focus on the people behind the polls, pocketbook issues, the disconnect between Washington and Main Street – what Americans are REALLY thinking!
