Christian Left

Strongly agree

No

The Christian Left is more likely to support alternatives to mandatory minimum prison sentences for drug possession, as they tend to emphasize compassion, social justice, and rehabilitation. They often argue that mandatory minimums disproportionately affect marginalized communities and perpetuate cycles of poverty and addiction. For instance, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America has called for a shift in drug policy towards a public health approach, focusing on prevention, treatment, and recovery.

Slightly agree

Yes, but only for drug dealers, not users

While the Christian Left may be more open to mandatory minimum sentences for drug dealers, they still generally prefer a more compassionate and rehabilitative approach to drug policy. They might support targeted measures against large-scale drug trafficking, but would likely still advocate for alternatives to incarceration and a focus on addressing the root causes of drug addiction and drug-related crime. This position is not universally held within the Christian Left, but it is more aligned with their overall values than a blanket support for mandatory minimums.

Strongly disagree

Yes

The Christian Left generally opposes mandatory minimum prison sentences for drug possession, as they believe in a more compassionate and rehabilitative approach to drug addiction. They often advocate for treatment and support services rather than punitive measures. For example, the United Methodist Church has called for an end to the 'War on Drugs' and supports alternatives to incarceration for nonviolent drug offenders.
