/ TOP THINGS TO KNOW
Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) sent a letter pressing Attorney General Pam Bondi and Drug Enforcement Administration Administrator Terrance Cole for an update on where marijuana rescheduling stands three months after President Donald Trump issued an order directing it be completed in "the most expeditious manner."
  • The letter also asks about the Department of Justice missing a statutory deadline to issue guidelines on easing research barriers into Schedule I drugs like cannabis and psychedelics.
Sens. Tim Sheehy (R-MT), Tammy Duckworth (D-IL), Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) and John Boozman (R-AR) filed a bill to create a new Department of Veterans Affairs office that would promote research on psychedelics and assist in reviewing scheduling status of drugs like psilocybin, ibogaine and MDMA.

A new poll shows that a majority of Americans across every age, gender, religion and political demographic agree that using marijuana is not morally wrong—but that Republicans are still twice as likely as Democrats to say consuming cannabis is a moral no-no.
