President Obama on Friday continued his press to overhaul the nation’s sentencing laws for drug-related crimes by commuting the prisons terms of another 42 federal felons.

Obama already had commuted more sentences than any other president before Friday’s actions, and his total is now 348. The closest to him were Presidents Clinton and Nixon, with 61 and 60, respectively.
