Noah Michelson, the Editorial Director at the new HuffPost Personal and Co-host of the Love + Sex Podcast returns to the show
as he does every Thursday to help us close out the week with the stories making
headlines over at Queer Voices and beyond.
Marijuana legalization has
been spreading to states across the nation, and now those convicted of
marijuana related crimes could see justice too. San Francisco will
retroactively apply California’s marijuana-legalization laws to past criminal
cases, overturning thousands of old convictions. As more states are legalizing
marijuana through ballot initiatives, legislative action and more, more drug conviction
reversals could be coming soon. Meanwhile, Attorney General Jeff Sessions is
pushing against marijuana legalization, pitting the federal government against
local legalization laws. Director of Communications Strategy for the Drug Policy Alliance, Jag Davies, joins
me on the show today to talk about this latest wave of reforms.
