Wow, practically everything you said is wrong, and it illustrates how you really don’t understand how this works.
Lol, I own and operate a CBD based company. I am well aware of the laws.
The Controlled Substances Act
And how does rescheduling conflict with the controlled substance act? They’ve already done their due diligence, as I said you may have had a point prior to the HHS recommendation, but according to the controlled substance act setting new rules/rescheduling is the next step.
The FDA has made its recommendation, and now the DEA has to make a recommendation for final approval.
It’s not the food in drug administration, its the department of health and human services that makes the recommendation. Again, you have no idea what you are talking about.
And, no, just because Biden has the power to fire the head of the DEA doesn’t mean he has the legal authority to force them to come to a determination he favors. That’s just ridiculous.
He can just fire them if he doesn’t and hire someone he knows will follow orders. You’re just being pedantic.
That’s the process as laid out by the Controlled Substances Act, a law passed by Congress, which lays out, in very specific detail, the process for this. And no matter what you insist, the president cannot shortcut this process nor force a decision either way.
First of all, the initial process of drug scheduling is laid out by the controlled substance act, but not how the rules are changed or modified. That’s handled under the purview of the administrative procedure act. According to both of these bodies the only thing left for them to do is have the DEA actually rewrite the rules, or reschedule.
The only reason the head of the DEA hasn’t done so already (she has made pro cannabis rescheduling remarks) is because the executive is holding off for a bigger impact for the election.
And no matter what you insist, the president cannot shortcut this process nor force a decision either way.
Lol, what short cut? The job is done, it’s just waiting for a signature. You don’t even know what the process is, what agencies are involved, or even the difference between rule making and law making. Stop pretending that you have any kind of actual experience in this field.
