Biden only supported legalized medical marijuana, and to his credit, he did actually start the process to do that. He order rescheduling to schedule 3 which basically legalizes medical marijuana. It should go into effect around December as the DEA has dragged out the process

    Will this include pardons for the millions of people currently in prison for weed possession?

      IIRC, Biden did this already happened. But most people in prison for weed are imprisoned under state law, not Federal, so he can’t do anything about them.
