For anyone who hasn't seen this yet, THIS IS HUGE.
I've quoted some highlights from the news article sourced below.

Please read and comment.

"The Democratic sweep in the 2006 mid-term elections has done more than finally install a woman as speaker of the House.

It has also put one of the most vocal critics of the ill-starred “War on Drugs” in a position to affect federal drug policy.

On January 18, Ohio Congressman and presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich, one of the most progressive Democratic voices in the House, was appointed as chair of the new House Government Reform and Oversight subcommittee on domestic policy, causing drug reform organizations coast-to-coast to rejoice in hopes that a moment for significant change may have finally come.

Kucinich can “hold hearings on some of the subjects that haven’t been addressed in, you know, decades. Like a hearing on America having the highest incarceration rate in the world. Or maybe a hearing on why the DEA has jurisdiction over medical issues."
