Rolling Change: The DEA Turns Over a New Leaf on Marijuana Scheduling
The U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) triggered high hopes when it recently announced it wants to accept the U.S. Department Health and Human Services’s recommendation to reschedule marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III.
Josh Horn, Co-Chair and founder of our Cannabis Law Practice, joins host Matt Adams to explore this trailblazing announcement by the DEA.
Their discussion digs into the business and banking ramifications for cannabis companies of the potential rescheduling. They also explore social justice issues for people formerly incarcerated for nonviolent crimes related to the possession and use of the marijuana. And they examine the parallels to Prohibition as well as consider the benefits rescheduling could have for medical research and municipal revenue generation.
