The abrupt firing of Attorney General Pam Bondi, whom President Donald Trump had ordered to reschedule cannabis, isn’t expected to delay marijuana’s move to Schedule 3 of the Controlled Substances Act.
President Donald Trump’s abrupt firing of Attorney General Pam Bondi won’t change much for the cannabis operators desperate for movement on marijuana rescheduling, several sources close to the process told MJBizDaily on Thursday.
That’s because the calculus is the same whether the Justice Department is led by former Trump personal attorney Todd Blanche, who will take over from Bondi on an acting basis, or Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin, said to be Trump’s long-term, permanent choice.
The president has promised to reschedule cannabis. And movement is underway at the DOJ to do it, possibly as soon as within 30 to 60 days, one observer said.
Trump “has been clear in his directive to have cannabis rescheduling implemented expeditiously, and it is understood that the administration is taking the necessary steps to ensure the process is legally and procedurally sound,” Brian Vicente, a partner at Denver-based law firm Vicente LLP, told MJBizDaily.
