鈥淎s public sentiment toward the War on Drugs has evolved, momentum builds across the U.S. toward bipartisan reforms, including the adoption of a constitutional amendment legalizing marijuana for medical use in 2016, passed with 71% approval of Florida voters,鈥� the letter said. 鈥淓ven so, there are people sitting in Florida鈥檚 jails and prisons whose only offense is having a small amount of marijuana in their possession.鈥澨�

While the exact number of people in Florida with a simple marijuana possession conviction is unclear, according to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, the state arrested 20,765 and convicted 4,202 people in 2021 for marijuana possession, a 13% and 29% increase, respectively, from 2020. 听

The following is a statement from Andrea McChristian, policy research director at the Southern Poverty Law Center. 听

鈥淚t is common sense for Gov. DeSantis to prioritize granting full pardons for Floridians with simple marijuana possession convictions. We know these people are not a threat to society, and the savings to taxpayers ensuring these individuals are no longer incarcerated is something all Florida residents would appreciate.鈥澨�
