Trump Administration Reclassifies Medical Marijuana From Schedule I to Schedule III
Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche signed an order reclassifying state-licensed medical marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III, marking the most significant U.S. cannabis policy shift in 50 years. The change doesn't legalize marijuana federally but grants medical marijuana operators their first federal tax break, eases research barriers, and legitimizes programs in 40 states. The administration also announced a June hearing for broader reclassification.
