Oregon lawmakers to the federal government: de-schedule marijuana
A bipartisan group of Oregon lawmakers joined legislators from across the country on Monday (August 6th, 2017) in calling for the federal government to remove marijuana from the list of controlled drugs.
The lawmakers’ vote to pass the resolution took place in Boston, at the National Conference of State Legislatures’ annual summit. If the federal government were to heed the request, it could ease restrictions on cannabis research and banking in states that have legalized the drug.
