"I believe we should look at the example of other states that have legalized marijuana and the profits they are earning from those revenues. I believe we should look at legalizing the use of recreational marijuana and using the taxes toward our pension debt. This solution can also help solve criminal justice goals of reducing our incarcerated population and the costs of caring for non-violent offenders. This solution would especially benefit minority communities that are disproportionately affected by our current marijuana laws." (Chicago Sun Times, 02/20/18)
