Bill > S2237

This bill, titled the "Ending Federal Marijuana Prohibition Act of 2015," aims to significantly limit the application of federal laws to marijuana by removing it from the Controlled Substances Act's Schedule I, which lists drugs with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse. Specifically, it would prohibit the federal government from enforcing laws related to the distribution and consumption of marijuana, effectively allowing states to regulate it independently. The bill also makes conforming amendments to various sections of the Controlled Substances Act to reflect marijuana's removal from federal control, while still maintaining a prohibition on interstate and international trafficking of marijuana intended for illegal use within a state.
