Federal government takes step toward easing cannabis restrictions
Manage episode 416807198 series 2649053
Cannabis may soon be reclassified on the federal level to acknowledge the drug’s medicinal benefits. Attorney General Merrick Garland made the recommendation last week. Reclassification could mean big changes for states where cannabis is legally sold, as well as new opportunities for research.
We speak with author and journalist Baynard Woods about repairing the harms of the War on Drugs. Read his essay in Baltimore Magazine: "How I Learned to Care for a Plant That Long Cared for Me."
