Tim Sheehy (R-MT) is planning to file a bill to create a new Office of Novel Therapeutics in the Department of Veterans Affairs that would promote research on the therapeutic potential of psychedelics and assist in reviewing the scheduling status of drugs like psilocybin, ibogaine and MDMA, according to legislative text obtained by Marijuana Moment.
