Now is the perfect time to come out for legal recreational pot.. [View all]

Pot is popular across most political spectrums.

It will bring in younger voters.

Many states will be decided by a handful of votes, meaning that small issues, like pot could tip elections.

Issues like these put the Democratic Party IN TOUCH with voters. Issues like these lure in voters that otherwise wouldn't give a SHIT about voting.

Give young voters a reason to turn out.

Make our party attractive to young voters.

And we will win in November.

Biden can win on these issues.
