Psaki says: Biden ‘exploring’ clemency for federal drug crimes | New York Post

President Biden is “exploring” the idea of granting clemency to people who are serving federal prison sentences for drug crimes, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Wednesday.

It would be a dramatic pivot for Biden, who authored some of the nation’s harshest drug laws in the 1980s and ’90s. In January, then-President Donald Trump freed two men serving life without parole for marijuana dealing under Biden’s 1994 crime law.
