The New York Times article, "Biden Commutes Drug Sentences for 11 and Expands Marijuana Pardons," talks about President Biden’s recent pardons and commutations, building on his actions from last year on marijuana pardons.

"Criminal-justice and sentencing activists said that Mr. Biden’s efforts to expand on marijuana pardons signaled a recognition that more could be done by the president to correct what they believe are outdated laws surrounding marijuana possession, attempted possession and use.“It’s a significant broadening of the category of people being helped by the president’s clemency powers,” Udi Ofer, a professor at the Princeton University School of Public and International Affairs, said. “This is consistent with historical uses of the president’s categorical clemency powers to fix a systemic injustice.”
