A grassroots political organization in Ohio has credited Black voters in particular for Tuesday night’s election results that included protecting in-state access to abortions and legalizing recreational marijuana. 

Under pressure to resign over a series of mounting scandals, Democratic governors in California and New York are making promises that critics say are only coming now in an effort to generate some positive press amid mounting scandals.

Though many have agreed that the new bill to legalize recreational use of weed in Illinois is very progressive, potential Black cannabis entrepreneurs said they still believe they have not been getting heard.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Blacks were disproportionately arrested for marijuana, but he never reportedly mentioned any sort of reparations for those same groups if weed were to be legalized.
