Congress' Jaw-dropping Response To Groundbreaking Cannabis Rescheduling Recommendation!

04 Feb 2024

Description

Send us a textSeveral senators are in such fervent support of the measure that they have put their signatures on a document urging the DEA to fully deschedule the plant all together. This letter highlights the growing support for medical marijuana and emphasizes the need to remove it from Schedule I classification. This classification is reserved for drugs with no accepted medical use and carries severe penalties for possession and distribution. By removing marijuana from this category, it would open up opportunities for further research and potentially lead to nationwide legalization. The letter also points out that turning to complete legalization still does not repair the damage prohibition has caused many American livelihoods. While legalization on a state by state basis does help create stronger economies and benefit communities with additional tax dollars, businesses themselves have heavier burdens than those businesses that are not engaged in what is considered a federal crime. Additionally, many patients who rely on medical marijuana are still at risk of facing legal consequences because of the federal laws that classify it as a Schedule I drug.
