Andrew Straw on Drugs

 

 


Complete legalization of marijuana at federal & state level

I will support complete legalization of marijuana And prohibit any state from making it illegal. The opioid crisis could have been avoided if marijuana were treated as an exit drug instead of a gateway drug. ÿ The federal government should be encouraging every state to shift people in jail on drug related crimes into treatment facilities, so long as there was nothing violent in the conviction.

Marijuana is a medicine and nutritious

Q: Do you agree or disagree with the statement, "Marijuana is a gateway drug"?

A: Strongly oppose this idea. Support marijuana. Marijuana is a medicine and nutritious. It should be legal for all purposes and sold behind the counter in grocery stores, next to the tobacco.
