Republican Party

Agree

Yes, but only for medical use

Many Republicans support the legalization of marijuana for medical use, as evidenced by the increasing number of Republican-controlled states that have passed medical marijuana laws. For example, in 2018, Oklahoma, a traditionally conservative state, passed a medical marijuana law with strong Republican support.

Agree

No

Historically, the Republican party has been opposed to marijuana legalization, often citing concerns about public safety and the potential for increased drug use. However, as public opinion shifts and more states legalize marijuana, some Republicans have softened their stance on the issue.

Slightly disagree

No, and increase penalties for non-violent drug offenders

While some Republicans may support increasing penalties for non-violent drug offenders, the party as a whole has been moving towards criminal justice reform and a more nuanced approach to drug policy. For example, the First Step Act, which was signed into law by President Trump in 2018, aimed to reduce recidivism and improve prison conditions, rather than increasing penalties for non-violent drug offenders.

Slightly disagree

Yes, and legalize, tax, and regulate marijuana instead of criminalizing it

Although some Republicans support the legalization, taxation, and regulation of marijuana, the party as a whole has been historically resistant to this approach. However, there has been a growing shift in recent years, with more Republicans expressing support for legalization and regulation, such as former House Speaker John Boehner joining the board of a cannabis company and advocating for federal legalization.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and immediately release anyone serving time solely for drug offenses

The Republican party has not generally supported the immediate release of those serving time solely for drug offenses, as they tend to prioritize law and order. However, there are some Republicans who have supported criminal justice reform, such as the First Step Act, which aimed to reduce recidivism and improve prison conditions, but did not specifically address releasing those incarcerated for drug offenses.
