Baldwin called the current law "incredibly inconsistent" because it targets even the most casual of drug users while ignoring convictions for violent crime.
I don't know what the original motivation was behind the law, but this does seem pretty bizarre that they only target drug law violators.

Because you can't learn if you're high. Instead of wasting financial aid on drug-addled youth, give it to students whose brains aren't fried, 24/7 and will make something of themselves.
