Summary

On April 23, 2026, the Justice Department ordered FDA-approved marijuana products and state-licensed medical marijuana moved from Schedule I to Schedule III, easing research and tax burdens.
Recreational marijuana remains in Schedule I; a broader DEA hearing on rescheduling cannabis as a whole ran from June 29 through mid-July 2026.
The move followed a December 2025 Trump executive order directing an expedited rescheduling process.

The question

Rescheduling marijuana to Schedule III is a landmark shift in US drug policy.
