Pardon Tommy Chong

The Issue

This Petition is written to request that Tommy Chong be granted a full Presidential Pardon.  We believe this to be fair as first the nature of the offense was neither violent nor the cause of any harm to any person or place.  Second, we feel this was done to make an example of Tommy Chong during a period when unfettered persecution took place against those who sought to give adults the choice of whether they wanted to use Cannabis products on a voluntary basis either for medical purposes or recreationally which is now the law in many States and is permissible under the law in other States. 

We respectfully request that Tommy Chong be granted a full Presidential Pardon and submit the signatures of the signees below who agree this to be a fair and just act on their behalf.
