/ TOP THINGS TO KNOW
Sen. John Hickenlooper (D-CO) filed a marijuana bill that would direct the attorney general to form a commission to prepare for federal legalization by recommending cannabis regulations modeled after those currently in place for alcohol.
Scotts Miracle-Gro CEO Jim Hagedorn revealed details about an "insane" marijuana rescheduling meeting in the Oval Office at which he said President Donald Trump described a compromise to put cannabis in Schedule II as a "half-assed" alternative to Schedule III.

Attorneys general from 19 states and Washington, D.C. filed a brief asking the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold the federal law restricting marijuana consumers' gun rights—saying that lower court rulings against the ban are "flawed in multiple respects."
The latest results of the federally funded Monitoring the Future survey show that teen marijuana use "remained stable" last year—even as more states continue to legalize cannabis—and that it is lower now than before states started enacting the reform.
State marijuana regulators are offering guidance about how to legally gift marijuana for the holidays and stay safe while celebrating.

The Drug Enforcement Administration promoted a podcast about the role of athletics in supporting drug prevention.

Rep. Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC) inserted comments into the Congressional Record about her bill to protect people from being evicted from public housing for marijuana use.

Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove (D-CA) tweeted, "Transferring cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III is a meaningful step toward decriminalization. Last year, I urged the Biden Administration to reclassify marijuana, and I was encouraged when they began the rescheduling process. While I welcome this administration's continuation of that work, I will continue to closely monitor the rule-making process and assess the rescheduling's impact on expungements, advocate for protections for small businesses against industry consolidation, and ensure this progress is used to reinvest in our local communities—especially those most harmed by the War on Drugs."

Rep. Jared Huffman (D-CA) filed a bill that includes provisions to rehabilitate lands damaged by illegal marijuana growing operations.

Rep. Tom McClintock (R-CA) tweeted, "Pot is a bad idea. So is criminalizing it. In a free society, grownups should make these decisions for themselves.  Kudos to Trump for his EO today. Congress should finish the job."
