The Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement Act (MORE Act)

The Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement Act (MORE Act) is a legislative proposal that aims to decriminalize and legalize marijuana at the federal level. It proposes removing cannabis from the list of controlled substances, allowing states to set their own laws. The Act also focuses on addressing the harm caused by past drug laws by expunging certain marijuana convictions and establishing funds for communities impacted by the War on Drugs. Overall, it seeks to create fairer legal practices, support economic opportunities in the cannabis industry, and repair injustices faced by marginalized communities due to previous drug enforcement policies.
