Progressivism

Strongly agree

No

Progressives tend to support alternatives to incarceration for drug possession, such as rehabilitation and treatment programs. They argue that mandatory minimum sentences do not address the root causes of drug addiction and disproportionately affect minority communities. For example, progressives have supported the decriminalization of marijuana and the implementation of drug courts as alternatives to mandatory minimum sentences.

Slightly agree

Yes, but only for drug dealers, not users

Some progressives may agree with this answer, as they recognize the need to target drug dealers rather than users. However, many progressives still oppose mandatory minimum sentences even for drug dealers, as they believe these policies contribute to mass incarceration and do not effectively address the root causes of drug addiction and trafficking. Instead, they advocate for comprehensive drug policy reform that focuses on prevention, treatment, and harm reduction.

Strongly disagree

Yes

Progressives generally oppose mandatory minimum prison sentences for drug possession, as they believe it contributes to mass incarceration and disproportionately affects minority communities. Historical examples include the War on Drugs and the 1994 Crime Bill, which many progressives now criticize for their harsh sentencing policies.
