Alabama Department of Public Health Holds Hearing on Marijuana Rescheduling - Seward Independent

State health officials are weighing whether to object to the federal change as written comments continue through Aug. 5.

  • A new NuggMD and Marijuana Moment poll shows 48% of cannabis consumers now approve of the Trump administration's cannabis actions, a significant drop from 73% last quarter.
  • The Drug Enforcement Administration concluded rescheduling testimony last week, with final briefs due August 17 before the DEA administrator issues a final decision.
  • When asked about full legalization, 54% of consumers said their support for the administration would increase, while 46% indicated their support would not change.
  • The Alabama State Committee of Public Health held a public hearing on Wednesday, July 22, to weigh whether to object to federal rescheduling, which could trigger a 30-day stay under state law.
  • Meanwhile, Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee signed legislation to block automatic state-level rescheduling, and Wyoming's attorney general determined this month the state will not reclassify marijuana despite federal reform efforts.
