Bill Summary
Relative to prohibiting the classification of marijuana from being linked to the federal scheduling system. Cannabis Policy.
AI Summary
This bill amends the existing drug scheduling system in Massachusetts by adding substances controlled under Schedules III, IV, and V of the federal Controlled Substances Act to Classes B, C, and D, respectively, of the state's drug classification. Importantly, the bill also explicitly prohibits the classification of marijuana from being linked to the federal scheduling system, effectively decoupling the state's approach to cannabis from the federal government's.
