Since many efforts to legalize marijuana have been enacted by Democrat politicians, it can be a bit puzzling that the legalization efforts are becoming a Republican concern too. However, some people think that Mace's political affiliation might be exactly what's necessary for her States Reform Act to have a chance in Washington, D.C. Mace has already received endorsements from companies including Amazon and groups including Charles Koch's Americans for Prosperity.

Before her career in politics, Mace attended the Citadel's Corps of Cadets program in 1999. She attended the University of Georgia in 2003, where she received a master's degree in communications. In 2001, she authored The Company of Men: A Woman at The Citadel.

Mace is working to legalize marijuana.

In November 2021, Mace introduced the States Reform Act to end the federal prohibition on marijuana. The act also proposes to remove marijuana from the Controlled Substances Act. Currently, marijuana is classified as a Schedule I substance along with other drugs like heroin and ecstasy. The States Reform Act proposes treating marijuana like alcohol with a nationwide age limit of 21 years old and impose a 3 percent tax on marijuana.

If the bill passes, states would be given the power to determine their own rules for marijuana and implement laws as they deem necessary. This would include states being able to regulate how marijuana is sold—if legalized. On the subject, Mace said, "I would categorize it as a compromise bill—it has something good for everyone." Amazon quickly endorsed that claim. On Jan. 25, Amazon released a statement in support of Mace's efforts.

Amazon thinks that the U.S. is long overdue for change regarding marijuana. The company is dedicated to helping Mace's efforts. A few months ago, Amazon stated it would no longer test employees for marijuana usage.
