Worth noting that Obama only has control over the 208,000 prisoners in the federal system

Only 46? He should free so many more than that.

How many non-violent drug offenders are in federal prison?

Seriously asking but I can't imagine the number is very high.

Apparently 15% of current federal inmates at least being processed as non-violent by the DoJ.

What is weird is the amount of genuinely bipartisan bills coming through congress atm dedicated to reform. It's very freakish.
