  Finally, the federal government is shedding its abject ignorance relative to the safest natural medicinal plant medicine on the planet! President Joe Biden has  formally endorsed  a  proposal  by the Justice Department to reclassify ‘botanical cannabis’ from Schedule I to Schedule III under the federal Controlled Substances Act.
