Rescheduling marijuana would be dangerously premature

A recent Wall Street Journal article revealed that President Donald Trump discussed reclassifying marijuana at a high-dollar fundraising event — a move that profit-driven cannabis corporations are aggressively pushing.

These businesses have poured millions into political campaigns, eyeing lucrative federal tax breaks and business advantages that rescheduling would unlock. Their goal is clear: expand profits and continue to advance the unfettered commercialization of ultrapotent products that can bear little resemblance to what many people think about as marijuana.
