Fox News
President Biden's pardons of simple marijuana possession charges will not apply to members of the military, who were charged under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
Biden announced the pardons on Thursday, saying they would cover about 6,500 Americans who were federally charged with simple possession of marijuana. Michael Lee is a writer at Fox News. Follow him on Twitter @UAMichaelLee
"As I often said during my campaign for president, no one should be in jail just for using or possessing marijuana," Biden said in the announcement. "Sending people to prison for possessing marijuana has upended too many lives and incarcerated people for conduct that many states no longer prohibit."
