This is an example of working for ALL people!!! Great teamwork!!!
That's just the beginning; let's see if they're provided with debit cards, free housing, and jobs like the illegal immigrants.
This is exceptional work being done by Gov. Wes Moore and his administration!!👏🏾🇺🇲💙👍🏽
I'm clapping behind my laptop screen and I'm not even a Maryland resident. This governor should run for president!
Absolutely!
He would do better than Biden
@@marceljaff2131 oh just stop it.
He will
Agreed. Lord William from Black MEN Network said the same thing. Seems that you two agree.
Governor Wes Moore is demonstrating what true leadership looks like. I hope more and more states will follow your leadership and Maryland’s example. You’re an inspiration!
True leadership starts with taking care of citizens not illegal immigrants.
This should happen in every state where Marijuana is now legal.
Totally agree.
Absolutely!! Shamed to keep people locked up for something that’s legal !!
Or not legal.
I believe it will.....the house just passed a bill for the **Draft 18-26**
Free them and provide them with the same Free housing, jobs, and cash payments that you're giving non citizens.
A beautiful man, inside and out, working for the people. Thank you. Everyone working together accomplished something enormous. They overturned a great wrong, and people from all walks of life are grateful.
This is why voting matters. Thanks for your values Governors Wes Moore
EXACTLY! If the Democrats are smart, they will run on making Marijuana legal federally.
WRONG! This is where Black folk get confused. We are emotional people and fail to think ECONOMICALLY. Gov. Moore pardons is an excellent move. However, this something that he should have done when he first got into office. This is a political move of the DEMOCRACTIC party to get Blacks to vote for Joe Biden. His pardons DO NOT give Black people any TANGIBLES.
Releasing them is only the first step; he needs to provide them with the same free benefits given to these illegal immigrants (free housing, debit cards, and jobs).
Thank you Gov Moore
WoW!!!!😢🙌❤❤🙏🙏💯💯God bless this Governor
This is super encouraging to see this advancement of our legal system because politics have been pretty depressing. Thanks, Govenor. I'm not a resident of your state and I don't believe that my state would ever do something like this, but I won't stop participating in the politic process in hopes that it will. TX get on board. Govenor Moore, your boldness is impressive and necessary.
Good Job Governor Wes
Governor Wes Moore is a champion of Truth and Right! Thank You!! A Great First Step!! Repair Us, Repair A Nation!!
I Love It
I Don't Live There.
But THANK YOU For The People
To Be The First To Lead
By Example❤
Excellent news
God bless you, governor. Do whatever you can to help them get on their feet. Thanks again.
This is absolutely amazing 👏🏿. This guy is a leader for the ppl. They elected the right one for the job.
Amen! Excellent Governor Wes. This makes PERFECT SENSE!
You are a great example for every other state, Thank you Gov Wes
Awesome🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 good man
This is a Governor who has done his job for the citizens of Maryland.
CONGRATULATIONS Maryland families!!! Now, go get it!!!
The taxpayers pay court costs and inmate housing expenses for these low level small amount offenses. Not to mention the criminal record to exclude you from earning a honest living. The corporations benefit from legalization, so why not? Good move and I am an independent voter.
Money well spent.
@@themeanhornet1070You ARE a mean hornet.
Well said
The rest of the nation needs to follow the leadership of Governor Wes Moore. The country should also have to provide some funds for those convicted.
This is good politics at work
Thank you Gov Wes Moore
That is so awesome. Thank God for Wes Moore in doing the right thing.
Texas Governor Pardoned a murderer. What a contrast.
Of course, Governor Greg Abbot of Texas just another maga that think he is above the law, just like Ron Desantis of Florida
No, Governor Moore, it can not reverse the past. It only helps the present and prepares a brighter future for the vulnerable black communities, even though on the other end, we still have Donald Trump to deal with....
Well said
exactly!!!
Facts
Well done !❤❤❤
People were going to prison for a small bag of weed.
People don’t go to prison for not having any. It’s easy.
@@themeanhornet1070 people shouldn’t go to prison for having any either, that’s easy as well. And you can’t point to any evidence that weed alone creates adverse social/criminal justice issues. It were just a great arbitrary way of maintaining mass incarceration of certain groups.
@@themeanhornet1070 ok then I think you should go to prison for having a sip of alcohol, since it's a more dangerous drug than weed. People don't go to prison for not having any alcohol, it's easy just don't drink.
My brother did 5 years for a quarter.Ounce something you can buy from the store like milk now
@@bernardwylie9760 not my concern or problem. Can’t do the time, don’t buy the dime.
Thank you thank you thank you
Great Teamwork ! Noone Left Behind Working for ALL Americans🙌🙌🙌
thanks governor.
Thank you sir 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💙💙💙
Thx 4 this it will save many lives
Humanity Prevails In Maryland!!!
Yay!!! It's about time. 🎉
Wes Moore for President 2028! This man been the truth! 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
He should replace Biden and get someone to replace Harris
@ErthaRizas , Harris runs in 2028 with Wes Moore as her Vice President.
@@amyreynolds3619 no harris
I don't dislike Harris, the problem she can't win !
2024
Congratulations
Yessssirr!!!!
Excellence, no further words are needed! May GOD keep OUR TRUE BLACK MEN STRONG!
My heart is pounding and cry love this man❤all his team God blessed all your family
More governors should follow this man's lead.
Totally agree. I always felt that if it is legalized, then those who are in prisons should be free and pardoned.
Thank God!
Bravo!!!!
They need to do this in Jamaica WI
That's right. Now, all of these rich people have dispensaries and there are post advertisements all over for cannabis. It's only fair that these people get out of prison.
Gov Wes doing the damn thing! Got the port up and running in record time, got crime rate down, unemployment down, righting historical wrongs, which will further bring improvement to the state, and improve people's lives. I look forward to seeing your portrait in the governor's house Governor. 🇺🇲🇺🇲💪🏾
One of the best speeches has been added to the list.
This is a great and courageous move. Our first step toward dismantling the "systemic federal government's and Wall Street's financing itself" off Black male bodies.
Do you think that this freed 100% black males? Democrats will take this as a "what they did for all black people" I'm black and never been to jail/prison. Let me know when they come up with a anti black crime bill that will protect us from this wrongful prosecution. Or reparations, that benefits specifically black people for the handle that Maryland played in slavery.
❤ Much love from NYC ❤
👏 Thank you
Finally a little true justice
thank you, Gov. Moore, and all involved in righting these horrendous wrongs

I will not be verbose in my expression, I will keep it very simple by saying, excellent!!! He will be our future president in 2028.
Kamala Harris for President 2028 with him as Vice President. If we don't get Joe Biden re-elected, none of this will happen.
Congratulations Governor ⚖️ 🗽 ⚖️💯🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

Thank you Sir.
Thanks buddy caught a cds charge for .25 of a gram and a bowl back in 1994 when I was 18 in Maryland was literally slammed on a police cruiser hood for that, got to love Frederick County sheriff office
Yes yes yes, and putting the capital R on righteousness!!!❤❤❤🎉
Blessings 🙏🏾❤🙏🏾 I couldn't stop the water in my eyes. This man is addressing positive change. I pray for a brand new Maryland, crime free, so people can travel anywhere with no fear, under this man.
You will make your ancestors and Country proud with your examples.
Bless 🙏🏾🇹🇹❤️🙏🏾
What an amazing young handsome, gorgeous, intelligent, bold, inspired, unstoppable, inseparable and so much more. I'll vote for him no matter what as he is the GOAT Governor. Btw, I'm not from the state of Maryland but he got my vote and many others. Keep up the great work Governor and may Heaven continue to bless and keep you, family, staff, city, state, and residence in his care.
Good job govenor thanks for all that you do .
Great job
Great Job Major Congrats to u and all that Work with you in Getting this Job Done Orher Mayor Need to Fallow your Example. God Bless All!!!
I pray for you
Thank you Governor
I’m proud to be under your leadership for our state! You are making history and you look good doing it❤❤❤
This is a great move. Specifically for people with misdemeanors on their records for cannabis. But I do wonder about the folks who've been convicted of felonies for having a joint. What of them?
Does a pardon means deleting the conviction off the record ? If not it will be a problem that likely leads to frustration and another criminal act.
Fantastic
Lord, have mercy on us. Please help us, Lord, to prepare for Your coming.
You all are doing great work! Shout it out! You are realAmericans Be proud. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻✌️💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Governor Moore, thank you very much for the leadership which is greatly appreciated ❤
Good job
Wes Moore for President. He is the real deal because he sees a problem and deals with it without fear. I am so proud of him; to live in Maryland; and be a Black woman born in the 50s
🎉 Great Job Governor Job well done🎉
I'm so proud of you a man with integrity honesty value and purpose. Make God proud.
How many $millions per year did Maryland just save on prison cells?
They can cut plans for new prisons for at least a decade.
How all governents should be run!
