Mixed news from the government about cannabis

The Federal Administration is in the entire FED -Cannabis policy in the FED -Cannabispolitik … and millions of patients are concerned.

The industry employees over 440,000 employees in all lives and are largely driven by mom and pop companies. Millions of marijuana use health problems ranging from chronic pain to sleep. But there are mixed messages from the Feds about cannabis and people are very concerned. The Federal Government's attitude towards marijuana has become increasingly complex because recent developments show contradictory approaches to the potential advantages and risks of the drug. On the one hand, an urge for veterans are presented after researching medical marijuana, while on the other hand, a campaign against the use of cannabis is started.

The comparison of initiatives underlines the inconsistent approach of the federal government to marijuana policy. While some departments examine the potential advantages of cannabis, others are actively working to discourage their use. This dichotomy is further illustrated by ongoing legislative efforts. For example, Rep. Brian Mast (R-Fl) has reintroduced the veteran equal access act, which means that VA-medical patients in states in which it is legal. In the meantime, documents of an ongoing lawsuit indicate that the DEA may have weighted the marijuana in -deployment process to ensure the rejection of the shift of the drug from Appendix 1 to Appendix 3.

In contrast to these research initiatives, Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has a partnership with a non-profit anti-cannabis. The campaign, which runs before April 20 (4/20), aims to “flood” Instagram with anti-cannabis content. The DEA offers students monetary incentives for the creation and publication of anti-THC videos, whereby the payments depending on the type of content produced between 25 and 50 US.

This approach raised the eyebrows because it seems to contradict the growing acceptance and legalization of marijuana in the United States. Critics argue that such campaigns may not be in contact with the current social trends and the scientific understanding of cannabis.
