Tell Legislators and Governor Spanberger to keep the public use fine at $25.

DPA and our allies in the Marijuana Justice and the Virginia CannaJustice Coalition are fighting to stop harmful increases in public consumption fines for marijuana. These massive fines for low-level marijuana offenses will impact all Virginians, but are enforced disproportionately against Black and brown communities. They create debt that low-income people cannot afford. They can trigger cascading harms in immigration, housing, education, and employment like loss of housing, job, or deportation. 

With the framework of the retail market and public policy approaches that will shape our state for decades on the line, your input matters. 

Send your legislator and Governor Spanberger a message to support a final legalization framework that focuses on public health, equity, repair, and reducing criminalization for public use.
