      The president only has the power to pardon federal crimes. Your state level crimes are at the mercy of your governor. This is not a failure of action or policy on Joe Biden’s part, but a feature of the system of checks and balances within our government. Complain to your local legislature.

          I hope you criticize your local legislators who have a much greater impact on your day to day life like you do the all mighty Oz in DC. 🙄
