This bill would remove cannabis from the federal list of illegal drugs and end federal criminal penalties tied to it. It would also clear certain past federal cannabis offenses and direct funding to help people harmed by the War on Drugs. In addition, it sets up federal taxes and permits for cannabis businesses, along with rules for how they operate and penalties if they break those rules.
