The DEA will move to classify marijuana as a Schedule III controlled substance, removing it from a list that includes heroin, bath salts and ecstasy and rescheduling it alongside prescription drugs such as ketamine and Tylenol with codeine. The proposal, which still must be reviewed by the Biden administration, would recognize the medical uses of cannabis and acknowledge it has less potential for abuse than some of the nation’s most dangerous drugs. However, the proposal stops short of legalizing marijuana for recreational use. Former DEA Deputy Administrator Jack Riley says he has concerns about the proposed change because he thinks marijuana remains a possible “gateway drug,” but “in terms of us getting clear to use our resources to combat other major drugs, that’s a positive.” Riley notes that fentanyl alone accounts for more than 100K deaths in the U.S. per year.
