Doge touts cancellation of cannabis research grant from federal health agency

Marijuana Moment has the story.

I think nobody can be that surprised that cannabis research would at some point fall under the fuzzy microscope that is Doge and of course it has to be politically motivated removal of funds. What else would you expect

 

The Trump administration is touting its cancellation of federal grant funding for a study examining cannabis use risks among LGBTQ+ individuals, non-binary people and heterosexual women.

On Tuesday, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) that’s headed up by Elon Musk listed a series of National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant funds it has eliminated, including the marijuana research project.

“Today, NIH cancelled the following grants,” DOGE said on X, which is owned by Musk. Of those grants, one was described as “$699K for studying ‘cannabis use’ among ‘sexual minority gender diverse individuals.’”
