Federal Proposal to Reschedule Cannabis: A Game-Changer for Patients and Businesses

The federal government has proposed rescheduling cannabis for medical use, moving it from Schedule one to Schedule three. This could significantly benefit patients and state-legal weed businesses across the nation, including Montana.

Kari Boiter, a longtime cannabis patient and advocate from the American Council of Cannabis Medicine, has been pushing for federal reform for over fifteen years. She envisions faster DEA approvals for state operations, insurance coverage for treatments, and more research opportunities.

While this change wont lead to full legalization, it could alleviate financial burdens for businesses and provide patients with better access to care. A DEA hearing is scheduled for late June, where stakeholders will provide input on the next steps. The road to reform is slow but steady, and all eyes are on whats to come.
