From National NORML: FDA Takes Public Comment on Cannabis Rescheduling

YES, Folks, it’s a moment we have all been waiting for. Now it’s here, stop waiting act today:

April 17, 2018

The United Nations World Health Organization is due to review the current international classification of marijuana, THC, cannabidiol, and other related compounds and preparations this year. In the lead up, the WHO is asking member nations submit feedback, of which no nation is more influential than the United States.

Between now and April 23rd, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is seeking public comment from “interested persons” (i.e. you) regarding the Schedule 1 status of marijuana under international agreements.

We have made it incredibly easy for you to add your voice with thousands of other NORML members in making it clear: cannabis does not fit in a controlled substances agreement, let alone Schedule 1.

In the action alert, you will find a pre-drafted comment that we encourage you to amend and include any other important aspects you deem worthy. You can draw additional information from our “Factsheets” and “About Marijuana” pages to expand your position for these public comments once on the tool.

We will be collecting comments between now and April 23rd, then will be delivering them by hand to the FDA offices.

Make sure your voice is heard – submit a formal comment NOW

Democracy is not a spectator sport and here at NORML, we’re proud to have you on the team.

Together, we will re-legalize it!
