LIFE FOR POT
Model this task on the mass-clemency granted by President Gerald Ford and President Jimmy Carter who gave commutations to those who had violated the Selective Service Act during the War in Viet Nam. The War on Drugs has been an equally divisive war imprisoning a generation of men and women.
Beth, whose brother, John Knock, is serving LIFE FOR POT created the Top 10 List of Men Who Deserve Clemency for Pot Cases.
