While the DEA's alignment with the Department of Health and Human Services' recommendation to move cannabis to Schedule III from Schedule I has been recognized as significant, the full implications of this move are still uncertain, and it does not legalize cannabis under federal law. Jonathan Havens 🟦, Cannabis Law practice co-chair at Saul Ewing LLP, told Cannabis Business Times that despite the limitations of rescheduling and the work ahead, it’s important to keep this in context and remember—this is a very big deal. “The headline to me is the federal government is poised to make the most significant controlled substances reform since really the enactment of the Controlled Substance Act,” Havens said of the 50-plus-year-old law. “To have a president say that federal agencies must expeditiously evaluate the appropriate scheduling of marijuana … President Biden issued his executive order less than two years ago … and to have HHS issue its findings less than a year later .... By Washington standards, that's lightning quick, particularly with something as like marijuana policy, which has essentially been the same for 50-plus years.” To read the full article, visit: https://lnkd.in/eyte7J6v #Cannabis #Rescheduling #DEA #CannabisPolicy

🚨 Cannabis Legalization Update! 🌿💼 🔐 Trigger Laws: What You Need to Know 🔐 Hey #LinkedIn community! Today, let's dive into the intriguing world of trigger laws and how they impact cannabis legalization. 💡💼 🌐 In a captivating video, Tom Howard, a renowned cannabis lawyer, breaks down the nitty-gritty of trigger laws and their implications for state-level drug scheduling. Let's unpack the key takeaways, shall we? 📝🔍 📌 Trigger laws are legal mechanisms that states use to respond to changes in federal drug scheduling. Essentially, when the federal government alters the schedule of a substance, these laws determine how states should adjust their own drug schedules accordingly. 📜💼 ✅ Some states have adopted the Uniform Controlled Substances Act (CSA), an automatic rescheduling mechanism. This means that if the federal government changes the schedule of a substance, these states will swiftly update their schedules to align with federal law. Talk about staying in sync! 🔄📆 ❗️ On the other hand, some states still operate under the original CSA from 1970. For these states, drug scheduling changes require a thorough review and recommendation from the state agency or legislature. It's a more involved process, but it ensures careful deliberation and consideration. 🧐💬 🔀 Lastly, there are states with trigger laws that grant the agency the power to reschedule substances. However, the legislature retains the authority to override the agency's decision. It's like a checks-and-balances system for drug scheduling! ⚖️✍️ 🔮 Looking ahead, Howard suggests that the process of rescheduling cannabis will likely involve an interim rule, a public comment period, and potential litigation. Brace yourselves for a fascinating journey through legal procedures! ⏳⚖️ 🔍 So, whether you're a cannabis entrepreneur, legal professional, or simply curious about the evolving landscape of drug policy, this video is a must-watch! Get informed and stay ahead of the curve. 📺🌿🔍 👉 Check out the video and let's spark a dynamic conversation in the comments below! 💬🔥 https://lnkd.in/g9pZi6pc #CannabisLegalization #TriggerLaws #DrugPolicy #LegalInsights #StayInformed

Legislation is pending, Senate Bill 363, to amend the state’s traffic safety laws so that they no longer discriminate against medical cannabis patients. The state’s current zero tolerance law makes it a crime for any person to operate a motor vehicle with any detectable level of either THC or its metabolites in their blood – even absent any evidence of driver impairment. Over 900,000 Pennsylvanians are registered to use medical cannabis products. The imposition of this zero-tolerance standard places each of them at risk of arrest every time they drive a car. Change PA Traffic Safety Laws To Stop Discriminating Against Medical Cannabis Patients SB 363 requires police to have evidence of driving impairment prior to making a DUI cannabis arrest. This is the same standard that applies to other medications. The sole presence of THC and/or its metabolites in blood, particularly at low levels, is an inconsistent and inappropriate indicator of psychomotor impairment. It’s time to change this standard and stop discriminating against medical cannabis patients. https://lnkd.in/e9X5GX3B

🌿 Important Update on Federal Cannabis Reform 🌿 The Biden Administration and the DOJ have announced a proposed rule change to reschedule cannabis from a Schedule I to a Schedule III drug under the Controlled Substances Act. This development marks a significant turning point in federal cannabis policy, acknowledging the medical, economic, and personal benefits of cannabis. However, this is just one step forward; many federal issues still need to be addressed, and this change does not equate to full legalization. This shift is an important move in the right direction, but ongoing efforts are necessary to achieve comprehensive reforms, including descheduling and legalization. We recognize the crucial work of activists, business owners, and policymakers in driving these changes. At The Hood Collective, we are committed to keeping the industry informed. We will share updates on what this means, what’s next, and how to engage in the public comment process for the proposed rules. #CannabisReform #TheHoodCollective #CannabisIndustry #FederalCannabisPolicy #CannabisLegalization #BidenAdministration #DOJ
