Strongly agree

Yes, but only for drug dealers, not users

Many Republicans would likely support mandatory minimum sentences for drug dealers, as they view drug dealing as a more serious offense than drug use. This stance is in line with the party's traditional tough-on-crime approach. However, there is a growing faction within the party that supports criminal justice reform and may not fully agree with mandatory minimums even for drug dealers.
