Continuing her commitment to criminal justice reform,&nbsp;businesswoman and celeb&nbsp;Kim Kardashian met with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/03/37760731/vp-kamala-harris-urges-dea-to-reschedule-cannabis-as-quickly-as-possible-calls-prohibition-absur">Vice President Kamala Harris </a>to discuss new strategies for addressing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/cannabis">marijuana policies</a>.
The meeting, which took place at the White House, highlighted President Joe Biden&#39;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/04/38412810/president-biden-pardons-commutes-16-non-violent-drug-offenders-cannabis-prisoners-excluded">recent use of clemency powers</a>, particularly for non-violent&nbsp;offenses.
<h3>Presidential Clemency</h3>
Recently, Biden pardoned 11 individuals and commuted the sentences of five others, all convicted for non-violent drug-related activities, underlining a shift towards more lenient sentences under current laws. This move aligns with his broader efforts to rectify past judicial discrepancies.
The <a href="https://apnews.com/article/kamala-harris-kardashian-criminal-justice-reform-biden-d34ae7fb30b1fe78326dafad230611d0">event</a> was marked by heartfelt stories from those pardoned, sharing tales of newfound opportunities and personal growth post-incarceration. Kardashian, reflecting on the gathering, emphasized the importance of amplifying such stories to inspire others in similar situations.
<h3>Historical Advocacy</h3>
Kardashian has been a vocal advocate for criminal justice reform, notably influencing policy during the Trump administration alongside Jared Kushner.
Her efforts have led to significant legal changes and individual pardons, including the high-profile case of Alice Marie Johnson in 2018.
<h3>Loan Restrictions</h3>
VP Harris announced a new rule from the Small Business Administration, aimed at easing loan restrictions for individuals with criminal records. This policy intends to facilitate reintegration and <a href="https://www.npr.org/2024/04/25/1247183807/kim-kardashian-white-house-criminal-justice-reform">provide second chances</a>.
&quot;Reducing and eliminating that restriction is going to mean a lot in terms of second chances and the opportunity for people to excel,&quot; Harris <a href="https://www.npr.org/2024/04/25/1247183807/kim-kardashian-white-house-criminal-justice-reform">said</a>.
The Biden administration has consistently worked towards reducing penalties for drug offenses, notably expanding a sweeping pardon for those convicted of simple <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/04/37988501/59-of-americans-support-right-to-grow-legal-cannabis-at-home-new-survey-finds">marijuana</a> possession&mdash;a move that resonates strongly with many voters, particularly young and minority groups.
This collaboration between Kardashian and Harris not only underscores the ongoing reform efforts but also showcases the influential role celebrities can play in shaping public policy and social justice.

In a compelling showcase of how sports figures leverage their platforms beyond the field, former NFL athletes <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/24/04/38358885/joique-bell-to-discuss-journey-from-rookie-to-prominent-nfl-running-back-at-benzinga-draft-event">Joique Bell</a> and<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/03/37797148/former-nfl-legends-bring-top-cannabis-strains-to-boston-with-launch-of-primitiv"> Rob Sims</a> shared their philanthropic journeys today (April 25) during the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93htkUYdGNc">Benzinga Sports Business Titans Draft</a> event in Detroit. 
The panel, adjacent to the NFL Draft at Campus Martius, highlighted the transformative impact athletes can have in their communities post-retirement.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Athletes Turned Philanthropists</h1>
Moderated by Rachel Decker, president of Detroit Philanthropy, the conversation delved into the personal motivations behind the athletes&#8217; commitments to giving back. 
Bell, a Michigan native and former Detroit Lion, emphasized the influence of his upbringing on his charitable efforts. 
&#8220;Growing up, being involved in community service was ingrained in me by my parents,&#8221; Bell said. He discussed his focus on literacy and education through his foundation, which aims to improve reading levels among students within a short period significantly.
Sims, who transitioned from the gridiron to various business and charitable endeavors, highlighted his strategic approach to philanthropy. 
&#8220;It&#8217;s about making an impact with the resources we have, ensuring our efforts genuinely help those in need,&#8221; Sims stated. His involvement with local organizations such as Detroit PAL and the Children&#8217;s Center demonstrates his commitment to youth and community health.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Impact And Influence&nbsp;</h1>
The discussion also covered the athletes&#8217; strategies for selecting and managing philanthropic engagements. 
Both Bell and Sims stressed the importance of aligning with causes that reflect their values and where they can make a meaningful difference. Bell shared his rigorous approach to vetting organizations before partnering with them, ensuring alignment with his goals to support community development.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Advice For The Next Generation&nbsp;</h1>
As the event drew the attention of young athletes and aspiring philanthropists, Bell and Sims offered advice on starting and running charitable foundations. 
&#8220;Understand the work that goes into managing a foundation; it&#8217;s akin to running a business,&#8221; Sims advised. Bell echoed this sentiment, emphasizing the importance of commitment and genuine passion for the cause.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Legacy Beyond The Field&nbsp;</h1>
Reflecting on their legacies, both athletes expressed a desire to be remembered for their contributions off the field as much as their achievements on it. 
&#8220;It&#8217;s not just about the sports; it&#8217;s about using our platform to make a lasting impact,&#8221; said Bell.
