The FDA Wants To Hear From You About Marijuana Scheduling

…At least that’s how the public comment process works. This year, 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 international Schedule 1 Status of marijuana under international agreements. We have made it incredibly easy for you to make your voice heard and need you to join 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. Click here to submit a comment. Right now, we are collecting comments and will be delivering them by hand to the FDA offices on April 23rd. 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. Don’t forget, democracy is not a spectator sport. Go on record with the FDA and fill out a comment to recommend the international descheduling of marijuana NOW. source: http://blog.norml.org/2018/04/10/the-fda-wants-to-hear-from-you-about-marijuana-scheduling/ #Headlines by: Justin Strekal, NORML Political Director
