Pusha T wants to legalize marijuana.
In support of California’s Proposition 64, a proposed law that would legalize the recreational use of marijuana for those aged 21 and older, Pusha T has filmed a PSA. As of now, marijuana is legal in the state, but only for medical use. According to Pusha, legalizing marijuana would permanently end marijuana arrests in California.
At the beginning of the video, Pusha states, “If California’s Prop 64 passes, no one will ever be incarcerated for marijuana again. Marijuana arrests are the engine that’s driving the war on drugs. It’s one of the number reasons why the people trying to re-enter their communities are sent back to prison.”
He goes on to say, “It’s the number 1 reason people trying to enter their communities are sent back to prison of weed. I’m not a California voter, but I know when good legislation passes in the biggest state, others states follow and that’s an important step for ending massive incarceration around the country. What’s most important to me is keeping people who are coming home, home.”
The PSA is part of the Artists for Yes on California’s Proposition 64 campaign, which has been supported by Jay Z, Common, Russell Simmons, Ty Dolla Sign, Danny Glover, and Jesse Williams.
