    There’s a couple of different ways she could do it. She could start the descheduling process (doable with existing law, but DEA slow it down like they are with Biden trying to move it to schedule 3). Or if there’s a democratic trifecta, she could also push for legislation to legalize it

    She did push for legislation like that in 2018 when she was a senator

      I’m aware of the avenues by which it could be legalized. I asked what Harris’ plan is. If she hasn’t released one yet, fine. She only just announced it. But I would like some specifics from her campaign at some point, because Biden’s efforts have been disappointing to everyone who considers Biden to be fallible.

        Biden never said he supported full legalization as far as I am aware, so it’s not surprising he didn’t go as far as he could.

        She just made the announcement for the first time in this campaign, so not stated that yet, but she has pushed for legalization via legislation in the past as a senator and called for faster action for the DEA on rescheduling as VP

        In other areas, Walz and Harris have already given plans for passing legislation to make banking access easier for legal states and helping veterans get access to medical marijuana in the VA

          Wait a second, when someone said Biden should do more you replied that Biden can’t do more,

          But now you are saying Biden didn’t do more because he didn’t want to.

          Something’s not adding up.

          I think dems are using this issue the same as they did with abortion.

          That’s why women are dying right now in many states, because politicians are dangling carrots with no intention of actually doing their jobs
