Tax and regulate marijuana to fund important projects

Studies have shown that full, federal legalization of medical marijuana in particular could be an effective solution to combat opioid addiction. I support descheduling marijuana from the Controlled Substances Act and pardoning and wiping the records of past offenders who were convicted of non-violent, marijuana-related crimes. We should begin taxing and regulating marijuana to fund important projects like our roads and our schools. Source: 2018 MI11 House campaign website HaleyStevensForCongress.com , Apr 26, 2020

Drug prosecution targets people of color disproportionately

We must end the War on Drugs as we know it. Drug policy and prosecution targets people of color at a disproportionate rate. This form of injustice and inequality is unacceptable and it is not effectively solving the problem of ridding our communities of drugs and crime. We must reexamine how we approach drug policy with the purpose of supporting American families. We can come up with solutions to save lives and rebuild the communities that have suffered from addiction for far too long.

PVS:Support recreational marijuana.

Stevens supports the PVS survey question on recreational marijuana

Project Vote Smart inferred whether candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'Marijuana: Do you support the legalization of marijuana for recreational purposes?' PVS self-description: "The Political Courage Test provides voters with positions on key issues. Historically, candidates have failed to complete our test due to the advice they receive from their advisors and out of fear of negative attack ads."
