A Karen Bass (D - CA) DECRIMINALIZE

Congresswoman Bass previously opposed marijuana policy reform but has recently come around to support the repairative components of legislation such as The Marijuana Justice Act and The MORE Act. 

She is the Chairwoman of the Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, and Homeland Security where the MORE Act had a favorable hearing in July of 2019 and was later passed by the full Committee with Rep. Bass's vote. 

Comments

"I'm concerned how a Sessions-led Injustice Department will respond to blue states like California going through the legalization process. I think there's a very real possibility that the Trump administration will come after those states like they did in their tax plan".
