Comment on This election, we can make Florida freer and fairer by passing Amendment 3 | Opinion

As a champion for people’s rights and economic opportunity, I have seen the high costs and the devastation caused by outdated marijuana laws — even for adults who simply choose to consume for their own personal use. This has to stop, and that is just part of the reason why I am endorsing Florida’s Amendment 3 to legalize limited possession of marijuana for adults. When someone is arrested for merely possessing small amounts of marijuana — a substance, it is vital to note, that is currently legal for a majority of American adults — that person’s life, their dreams and aspirations are all but destroyed.
