Bill Summary
A BILL To provide for the rescheduling of marijuana into schedule III of the Controlled Substances Act.
AI Summary
This bill aims to reclassify marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III of the Controlled Substances Act within 60 days of enactment. In the current drug scheduling system, Schedule I substances are considered to have no accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse, while Schedule III drugs are recognized as having some medical applications and a lower potential for abuse or dependence. The bill, known as the "Marijuana 1-to-3 Act of 2025," would require the Attorney General to officially transfer marijuana's legal classification, effectively acknowledging its potential medical value and reducing some of the legal restrictions currently associated with the drug. This rescheduling could have significant implications for research, medical use, and legal status of marijuana at the federal level, potentially making it easier for researchers and medical professionals to study and potentially prescribe marijuana-based treatments.
