We are thrilled that President Obama is making good on his promise to use the powers granted him by the Constitution to provide relief for federal prisoners serving excessively long mandatory minimum sentences, i commend the President.

I commend the President, but I'd also like to stress that the problem his actions are trying to address can't be solved by the White House or the Department of Justice. Congress created these mandatory minimums, and Congress needs to reform them.
