How are these things related?
Trump also want marijuana legalized. But it’s not news because it’s not to help black people?
Whats the deal?
Anyhow. Good policy.

Black men are disproportionally charged with cannabis-related crimes compared to white men despite a similar percentage of users in both groups. The supposed smell of cannabis is more frequently used as justification for searching black men and their vehicles.
