legalization advocates

Legalization advocates are individuals or groups who support making certain behaviors, substances, or activities lawful under the law. They believe that regulation, rather than prohibition, can lead to better safety, fairness, and public health outcomes. For example, many advocates support legalizing marijuana to reduce criminal justice costs, increase tax revenue, and ensure product safety. Their goal is to change existing laws in a way that respects individual choices and reduces harm caused by illegal markets. They often work to influence policymakers, raise public awareness, and promote evidence-based policies.
