If you have a federal marijuana possession conviction, President Biden just pardoned you.
More important news is that Biden directed that the Schedule One classification of marijuana (the same as LSD and Cocaine and Heroin) be re-examined.
The re-scheduling of marijuana will allow it to be sold easier and for businesses who operate marijuana distribution and sales centers to put the proceeds of their business in a bank. Right now banks do not want to take proceeds from the sale of a schedule one narcotic.
This has been long overdue.
Biden also encouraged state governors to follow his lead and issue similar blanket pardons for state court convictions. Don’t hold your breath Floridians.
