Today’s historic executive action to move c*nnabis from a Schedule I to a Schedule III substance marks a meaningful step forward for the fields of medicine and agriculture. 🌱
This reclassification officially recognizes the medical value of c*nnabis and allows it to be studied and researched as a legitimate medicine and agricultural crop under federal law. While this does not represent the full federal legalization many of us continue to fight for, it signals a long-overdue shift in how this plant is understood at the policy level.
For thousands of years, Ayurvedic medicine has recognized c*nnabis as a therapeutic plant when used intentionally and responsibly. It is encouraging to see U.S. policy begin to align with this ancient understanding after decades of prohibition-driven narratives.
We remain committed to continuing our advocacy alongside our peers so society can fully benefit from c*nnabis — as a medicine, as a sustainable resource, and as a plant that supports healing and human consciousness.
