MPP Tracks Marijuana Policy
in All 50 States
We believe whatever potential harms may be associated with using marijuana are more than outweighed by the immediate harms that derive from being caught up in the criminal justice system. Once a young person is arrested and brought under the justice system, he or she is more likely to get caught in the criminal justice system again.... It is time to end the failed war on drugs by decriminalizing and regulating marijuana to save our communities.
Alice Huffman, grassroots leader and president of the California Hawaii NAACP
