Trump to Crack Down on Marijuana Users, Campaigners Say
Trump to Crack Down on Marijuana Users, Campaigners Say
A new Department of Justice report on violent crime and marijuana will pave the way for the Trump administration to crack down on the drug, campaigners and lawmakers say.
The Trump administration’s Task Force on Crime Reduction and Public Safety, led by Attorney General Jeff Sessions, is to release a report next week that critics fear will link marijuana use to violent crime and advocate tougher sentences for those producing, selling and using the drug.
Democrat Senator Brian Schatz, linking to a report on the crackdown, described the plans as “backward and inhumane” in a tweet on Sunday.
