"The Department of Justice is delivering on President Trump's promise to expand Americans' access to medical treatment options. This rescheduling action allows for research on the safety and efficacy of this substance, ultimately providing patients with better care and doctors with more reliable information."
"Blanche also ordered that a hearing be held in June as part of a rule-making process to reclassify all marijuana more broadly. Once the rule change is published in the Federal Register, it has 30 days until it takes effect."
The US Department of Justice has reclassified cannabis, moving it from a Schedule I narcotic to a Schedule III drug. This change allows for increased access and research on marijuana. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche announced the reclassification, which aligns with President Trump's directive to enhance medical treatment options. A hearing is scheduled to consider broader reclassification of marijuana. Despite this change, marijuana remains illegal at the federal level, although many states have legalized its use for medical or recreational purposes.
