Hey @BernieSanders - you can #CancelStudentDebt and not have to #tax ANYONE by using this bill #theNeedAct by @Dennis_Kucinich --> bit.ly/NEEDact This will also stop feeding just the 1% - let's talk about this! @AllianceJust

Absolutely deplorable! @NYGovCuomo @AndreaSCousins @CarlHeastie @Brooks4LINY @AnnaMKaplan Every poll (even the opposition) had no less than 55% in support of legalization. We were promised legalization and we were snubbed. Wait until next election, this will not be forgotten!

Urge @nygovcuomo to reinvest revenue from legalization in communities most impacted by prohibition. #MarijuanaJustice
.@nygovcuomo: it is your time to lead! Make NY the first state to require revenue from legalization to be invested in our communities.

Legalizing marijuana is a racial & criminal justice imperative. If we truly want a more fair system, we must ensure that those who were unjustly harmed be given a clean slate. That means providing full expungement for those convicted for non-violent marijuana offenses.

Legalization in NY MUST follow what’s in the MRTA and expunge prior cannabis-related criminal records; address additional devastating impacts of marijuana criminalization in the fields of immigration, family law, housing, and employment.
