2018 Farm Bill……nuff said.
Nothing will change.

Its better not to smoke weed
Responsible adults 🤔
The perfect statement they have to get the ppl free from jails and make it all legal in all states. It will also help ppl like us who make too much to get Medicaid (by 200$) but are working multiple jobs with a full-time job to keep up an honest life. It will help with no insurance pain management, immune flares, and my mental health.
ALL drugs should be decriminalized and let corporations produce labelled and high quality drugs without poisons. This would also reduce most violence involved with black market underground drug industry
Forget about it. He’s not into it. Not a single word of honor
Yes he will. Ivermectin as well help with cancer and so many sickness
This is The Green Deal I would like to see.
He alrdy cut badly needed research funds for marijuana
Ur all garbage don’t touch me
This comment has aged horribly , Republicans are useless and do nothing for anyone, especially the cannabis movement.
Grok says it’s a 50-60% chance schedule 3 gets passed in 2025
It needs to be descheduled like alcohol
It should be federally legal. I am 67 years old and I use marijuana every day. 10mg THC 5mg CBD. It’s medicine and I also use it recreationally.
Florida: I think we had like a 52 or 56% approvals for the amendment last election. Which is really sad because 1) the CSA put marijuana on the list by congress not doctors or researchers or DEA, 2) marijuana has had a horrible history on the criminal justice side ruining lives 3) unlike nicotine which promotes cancer or alcohol which is carcinogenic / shortens lifespan, weed you can process for food/drinks and from what I can tell could cause little harm other than the typical smoking. 4) Probably the most important one is that hemp derived weed had been legal for 5+ years under the 2018 farm bill, however this has caused adulterated weed with some reports of hundreds of contaminants, but with no regulation or safety it has been poisoning Americans. It’s time we legalize and set standards so that we can move past this vile history of retribution, racism, and poisoning of our citizens.
He hasn’t been
Joe Biden directed the Department of Health and Human Services in October 2022 to review marijuana’s classification. Federal scientists concluded that there is credible evidence that cannabis provides medical benefits and that it poses lower health risks than other controlled substances.
Biden even made history in his State of the Union address for the first time referring to marijuana from the dais in the House chamber and making note of the federal review process. “No one should be jailed for using or possessing marijuana,” he said.
When Biden was vice president in the Obama administration, the White House opposed any legalization of marijuana, saying it would “pose significant health and safety risks to all Americans.” THATS WHY IT’S BEEN ALLOWED EVEN SINCE BIDEN BE IN
Ya i honestly dont believe he will go fully federal.He has gone on the record saying people who use cannabis are criminals
If you think this is going to matter in a year you aren’t paying attention.
It’s always been legal in my world.
❤❤❤
He tried this last time and got voted down by them dems.
They’re never going to allow a republican to federally legalize it, it would destroy their lie .
He isn’t going to be good. He’s already said it’s going to be corporations running everything.and mom and pop shops won’t be a part of it.also he doesn’t want the public to grow their own. It’s just rich people taking it over.they found a way to be legal drug dealers while screwing us all!
Stilllllll waiting
Saw what you did at the end there. Talking more slowly as if high on weed LOL!
Alcohol made me sick, throw up, hangover. Weed made me eat a whole box of Twinkies and sleep real good 😂😂😂
Legalizing weed alone not is only good for medicinal purposes but will hit the cartels where it hurts. If it’s legal.
It’s not a gateway drug.
All I do is smoke weed.
Cocaine is a gateway drug.
I feed is sold as legal. Technically it wouldn’t be a drug one and two as educated as these guys are you’d figure they’d know a real drug is man made or manufactured. And Jordan’s a white guy that has lived a privileged life and probably never smoked himself. A real gateway drug is the one you try 1st.
Why a cocaine heads scone head and crack heads are crack heads.
🇺🇸👏👏👏 legalize
So far nothing, I wouldn’t hold your breath
Decriminalize Marijuana
Nonsense
I have never seen somebody get more aggressive after smoking weed, so it’s a great pacifier.
Regardless of state wide recreational status gun laws need to be reevaluated. If im a regular user of cannabis under federal law im committing perjury when filling out the document to purchase a handgun. I am not a danger to myself or my community solely on the basis of consuming an otherwise legal psychoactive drug.
Federal legalization will be beneficial in multiple ways, More jobs, Great decrease in black market dealings and it’s better than cigarettes and booze 100%. We need regulation federally and plenty of Government employees could benefit from Cannabis.
I dont smoke that much here of that😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hopefully they legalize it federally
Weed is not something you smoke every day, not like cigarettes, it leads to psychosis if smoked like cigarettes
Someone needs to give him some weed so he can chill out.
Whats good for one state should be good for all states…
Well, this aged like milk.
Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Ill believe it when Indiana legalizes it
The government takes out the reasons for using it.
Government weed doesn’t give a buzz.
If he was good for weed he would have legalized it back in 2016
