Cannabis Policy Reform

Learn more about 香港六合彩开奖结果记录’s efforts to advance cannabis decriminalization while protecting the health and safety of patients.

In 香港六合彩开奖结果记录's 2020 , 香港六合彩开奖结果记录 reviews the medical and social science literature about cannabis use and recommends important, evidence-based policy changes that mitigate potential harm related to cannabis use in the United States. As the medical community continues to document evidence of the harms and potential benefits of cannabis use, 香港六合彩开奖结果记录 calls for the decriminalization of cannabis use, alongside appropriate regulations and oversight that protect public health.鈥� 

Learn more about the Drug Enforcement Administration's proposed rescheduling of marijuana from reading 香港六合彩开奖结果记录's comment letter submitted on the proposed rule, submitted July 19, 2024. If finalized, the proposed rule would move marijuana from Schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) to Schedule III. This proposed transfer is based on a determination by the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) that marijuana has a currently accepted medical use (CAMU) and lower “abuse potential and level of physical and psychological dependence” than other controlled substances that are in schedule I.

While such a “wholesale” transfer may result in beneficial impacts to scientific research and/or pharmaceutical development, 香港六合彩开奖结果记录 recommended that the DEA consider the possible failure of marijuana with higher tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) concentrations to meet HHS’ new, alternative test for CAMU. 香港六合彩开奖结果记录 also noted that significant, negative public health ramifications are likely to result if Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Code Section 280E no longer applies, and thus marijuana companies/dispensaries were allowed to take advantage of various federal tax deductions and credits due to a transfer of marijuana to Schedule III.

For these reasons, 香港六合彩开奖结果记录 could support a final rule that transfers only marijuana with lower THC concentrations to Schedule III, so long as any such final rule clearly states that (1) the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FDCA) will continue to apply, and (2) Schedule III requirements/controls will be enforced for those who take advantage of federal tax benefits due to 280E no longer being applicable after such a rescheduling. Higher potency marijuana, however, would remain in schedule I in the absence of Congressional action.
