President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Thursday that reclassifies marijuana as a Schedule III drug. It was previously a Class I drug, which is in the same category as heroin and LSD.
By doing so, the federal government now recognizes that marijuana has a “moderate to low potential for physical and psychological dependence.” The signing itself does not fully make marijuana use legal, but it could continue the process of legalizing the drug.
