2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

So it moves to be rescheduled but is just being sent to DEA for them to now think about it?
I get it's news but I don't see what is actually changing
Its the next major step in the process of getting it rescheduled. Each step could potentially end that process, so each movement forward is great news.
The DEA already agreed to the FDA’s Schedule III recommendation. Now it’s open for 60 days of public comment.
If there’s no change in mind, it gets passed to up the to both HHS and DOJ as approvals, then sent to Biden to sign off. (I think)
the government is so pathetically slow and people love to celebrate this bullshit facade of progress for some reason. this should've been done 20 fucking years ago, i'm not giving them props for that now. not a chance.
Best time to make a change was 20 years ago. Second best time is now. Progress is progress. Would you rather it continue to not happen?
Yes. Yes they would. Is this your first time on Lemmy?
No kidding especially after 40 fucking states have medical marijuana programs while the DEA still considers it Schedule I "high potential for abuse with no known medical use."
