Cathy Porterfield (D - VA)
Position on Marijuana Legalization
"I have not ever and will not ever support any prohibition of cannabis use by adults." (Candidate Survey Response)
"I think all non-violent marijuana-related charges should be expunged. These individuals did not and do not represent a threat to society and therefore should have all their rights restored." (Candidate Survey Response)
Position on Medical Marijuana
Opposes expansion of medical cannabis program to improve patient access: "I'm concerned expansion of medical cannabis access is a ruse to eliminate our new relaxed recreational marijuana laws. This would also favor pharmaceutical companies and eliminate the ability for small businesses to engage in recreational cannabis sales." (Candidate Survey Response)
