Illinois’ 17th District seat, a conservative district held by outgoing Democratic Rep. Cheri Bustos, was redrawn to give her party an easier path, but the district could still land in Republican hands. https://t.co/m9J7pog0wu — PolitiTweet.org

“I wholeheartedly disagree that every system is inherently racist because if it were, I would not have had the opportunity of becoming a lieutenant colonel in the Air Force and the Indiana National Guard,” Green said. — PolitiTweet.org

Green sees herself as a political missionary, a cultural translator who can bridge the divide between Republicans and minority communities on issues like the social safety net. — PolitiTweet.org

Green recognizes the rarity of being a Black woman and conservative — something she recalls having an awareness of early in life. — PolitiTweet.org

Jennifer-Ruth Green's unique story that has made her a formidable challenger, but the ways and places in which she tells it: She’s become something of a regular on Fox News, a Black messenger who is a useful soldier in the culture wars for Republicans. https://t.co/KuojJ0v5Gd — PolitiTweet.org

Read more on what Biden’s weed actions do — and don’t do — and what it could mean for America’s budding multibillion-dollar marijuana markets👇 https://t.co/XUxUVQLN37 — PolitiTweet.org

If the DEA and FDA decide to change marijuana’s federal status, some worry it may be moved to Schedule II or III, instead of being removed entirely. That would put it in the scope of FDA regulations, which could jeopardize state-regulated weed markets. https://t.co/XUxUVQLN37 — PolitiTweet.org

POLITICO @politico

There are two ways the federal government could decriminalize weed: 👉 Congress could pass a law since it created the Controlled Substances Act, where marijuana is a Schedule 1 drug. 👉 A citizen can also petition the DEA to review marijuana’s scheduling. https://t.co/XUxUVQLN37 — PolitiTweet.org

While Biden ordered the AG and HHS Secretary to review marijuana’s status under federal law, he can't unilaterally loosen federal restrictions on it. His power to dictate the details of the review is also severely limited. https://t.co/XUxUVR3Whf — PolitiTweet.org

Cannabis advocates worry that even those who get a pardon will still face discrimination when it comes to accessing housing, jobs or educational opportunities. “A pardon still leaves all the [criminal] records intact,” said one advocate. https://t.co/XUxUVR3Whf — PolitiTweet.org

POLITICO @politico

The vast majority of people locked up for marijuana possession were convicted at the state level. Biden’s order calls on governors to issue pardons for state marijuana possession offenses, but he has no authority to compel them to act. https://t.co/XUxUVR3Whf — PolitiTweet.org

POLITICO @politico

Who gets a pardon under Biden's executive order? It's limited to people with federal convictions for simple possession of marijuana, which a senior admin official estimated will affect about 6,500 people. https://t.co/XUxUVR3Whf — PolitiTweet.org

Biden’s mass marijuana pardon and push to review its status under federal law may be the biggest shift in U.S. policy in over 50 years — but some cannabis advocates wonder how much they'll actually do. A look at Biden’s weed actions and what they mean👇 https://t.co/XUxUVR3Whf — PolitiTweet.org

Biden urged states to follow his lead, because a majority of people jailed for marijuana possession are convicted under state or local laws. He added that regulations limiting marijuana trafficking, marketing and sales to minors shouldn’t change. https://t.co/aGiRLM8JOx — PolitiTweet.org

ICYMI, Biden pardoned those convicted of marijuana possession under federal law yesterday, the most extensive White House action on U.S. drug policy to date. "Too many lives have been upended because of our failed approach to marijuana," he said. https://t.co/gX3WLYlqau — PolitiTweet.org
