As President Joe Biden enters his final months in office, a collective voice resounding from criminal justice reform advocates from coast to coast is calling for the POTUS to pardon Edwin Rubis and other federal inmates currently doing time for nonviolent cannabis crimes.
LOS ANGELES, Sept. 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- With Election Day less than six weeks away, the nation will soon know who will be the next President of the United States. The next president will need to wait until Inauguration Day in January 2025 to take power, realistically leaving President Biden nearly four full months to cap his agenda and secure his legacy.
Having granted clemency to just 150 of the thousands of petitions his administration has received, Biden is batting just 1.4% on this core human rights issue. Not one cannabis prisoner has been released.
President Biden is likely going to grant more pardons before leaving office. Edwin Rubis is an ideal candidate for release, showing remorse, reform, and the ability to be a productive member of society after serving 27 years for nonviolent cannabis trafficking charges in the 1990s.
Here are some ways you can encourage President Biden to grant clemency to Edwin Rubis.
- Sign this Change.org petition and share it widely.
- Visit FreedomGrow.org where you can donate to help free prisoners like Edwin, and also sign their petition to President Biden seeking clemency for Rubis and many others similarly doing time for nonviolent cannabis crimes.
- Write to the White House directly, including the current USDOJ Pardon Attorney Elizabeth G. Oyer.
- Spread the word! This is an easy win for the White House and a second chance for Edwin Rubis and others.
