Simply expanding public health interventions is not enough. Especially since our current drug policy remains focused on punitive approaches—including arresting more than 750,000 Americans a year, reports the Drug Policy Alliance, for low-level marijuana possession despite evidence that fear of arrest is a major reason why individuals with substance misuse disorders don’t seek help.
“The Administration continues to keep its head in the sand when it comes to marijuana law reform,” said Bill Piper, director of National Affairs for the Drug Policy Alliance. “Hundreds of thousands of Americans are being arrested each year for nothing more than possessing small amounts of marijuana for personal use. Once arrested they can be discriminated against in employment and housing for life. The Administration can’t ignore the destructive impact of mass arrests forever.”
Now’s the time for change. Do you think it’s time that the US Government begin treating drug misuse as a health issue and not a criminal one?
