Recently on Capitol Hill, Sen. Jim Webb (D-Virginia) introduced a bill to create a blue ribbon commission to initiate a comprehensive review of America's criminal justice and drug policies. The commission will spend eighteen months studying all aspects of the criminal justice system, report the findings to Congress and offer tangible recommendations for reform, including, possibly, an end to the cruel drug laws that send too many people to prison for too long.

But that's only if we build enough support to pass this important legislation.

We've made it easy for you to contact your legislators about supporting Sen. Webb's bill. All you have to do is go to LEAP - Law Enforcement Against Prohibition - Cops Say Legalize Drugs and enter in your contact information.

The United States is the number one incarcerator in the world, with one out of every one hundred American adults behind bars. Sadly, the lion's share of this insane level of incarceration is driven by drug prohibition.

How is it that the country which purports to support Freedom also is the number one incarcerator in the world for minor non-violent offences ? We as a nation are spending vast sums of money and, the only result for this effort is ruining 100's of 1000's, if not Millions of citizens lives without any social benefits being realized.

Could this be an effort of revoking citizens voting rights en mass ?

Isn't that one of the contributing factors which allowed Bush to take office, purging of the Felon off the voter roles? How many of those people did nothing more than be charged with possession of small, personal-use quantities of marijuana ?
