States and tribes could set their own marijuana laws without federal interference.
This bill would let states and federally recognized Indian tribes decide their own rules for marijuana. Federal drug laws would generally not apply to marijuana activities that follow state or tribal laws. This would also allow legal marijuana to be shipped between states that permit it.
Currently, marijuana is illegal under federal law, even in states where it's legal, creating a large illicit market and regulatory challenges. If this bill passes, federal Controlled Substances Act provisions would generally not apply to marijuana activities that follow state or federally recognized Indian Tribe laws. This would allow for legal interstate transportation between permitting jurisdictions. The Food and Drug Administration would gain authority to regulate marijuana products for safety and marketing, and compliant marijuana would be removed from federal drug schedules. Businesses would also get federal legal and tax protections.
