A White House spokesperson defended President Donald Trump's marijuana rescheduling executive order in response to questions about industry lobbying and contributions in advance of the move, saying,  "President Trump made a campaign trail pledge to expand medical research into applications of marijuana and cannabidiols by rescheduling marijuana. This historic action paves the way for the development of promising new treatments for American patients, especially veterans—and the presence of several leaders from law enforcement and veterans groups at the Oval Office signing is indicative of how President Trump continues to push the envelope to support our nation's heroes."

The General Services Administration adopted changes to federal rules, including a prohibition on possessing or being under the influence of marijuana or other drugs on federal property.

Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) said rescheduling marijuana is a "realistic step" toward recognizing state legalization laws.

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) posted several cannabis-related tweets as part of his annual Festivus airing of grievances.
