    Law enforcement has removed the individual liberty of thousands over something that is perfectly legal in like half the country right now…

    The judiciary branch can, and will, argue that their actions were, at the time, criminal activity. They can’t really roll that back without some really fucky precedents happening on the process.

    It’s one of the very few instances when the executive “checks and balances” are truly warranted, and these types of pardons should be absolutely rampant right now, even without a federal descheduling. It’s one of the few times we it’s simply the right thing to do vs the political dog whistle its generally used as.

    It should not be symbolic… But I will concede that it should be a gubernatorial matter :)
