DNC Platform is subdued towards Marijuana Reform

It’s the big Democrat Convention week, and the DNC is coalescing around Kamala Harris as their nominee. With that comes the approval of a party platform. The platform that was voted on at the convention was drafted last month before Biden bowed out of the race, with surprisingly nothing changed since Harris has taken over.

This is especially surprising when it comes to marijuana. The main difference between Biden’s stance and Harris’ is that Harris fully supports federal legalization. However, none of that is remarked upon in the platform.

But even if the argument stands that this is all leftover from Biden’s administration, and that there simply wasn’t enough time to revise everything in the platform, Biden’s initial cannabis platform was pretty conservative. Rescheduling was mentioned, but with no timetable, and expunging records is still a goal, even though Biden has already pardoned marijuana-only federal convictions. Apparently this is a separate action, being that pardoning is only an official forgiveness. In 2020, Biden’s platform stated medical marijuana legalization as a goal. That is now entirely gone from the platform.

There was lots of excitement around the idea of a fast route to legalization with a possibility of Harris on top at the White House, but that may not entirely be the case, according to the official Democrat playbook. Hopefully a couple years of more pressure will change this.
