Marijuana Policy Project

Hi there! Do you know what marijuana is? It's a plant that some people use to feel relaxed or happy. But not everyone thinks it should be allowed. The Marijuana Policy Project is a group of grown-ups who want to change the rules about marijuana. They think it should be legal for adults to use marijuana if they want to.

Right now, the rules about marijuana are different in different places. In some places, it's illegal to have any marijuana at all. In other places, it's illegal to have too much. The rules can be confusing! The Marijuana Policy Project wants to make the rules more fair and clear for everyone.

They also work to help people who've been punished too harshly for having marijuana. Sometimes, people go to jail just for having a little bit of it. This group thinks that's not fair, and they want to help those people get out of jail.

The Marijuana Policy Project is really trying to make things better for people who use marijuana. They want to make sure everyone is treated fairly, and that everyone's rights are respected.
