President Trump on Thursday signed an executive order reclassifying marijuana from a Schedule I to a Schedule III drug.
“Marijuana can be legitimate in terms of medical applications when carefully administered,” President Trump said in the Oval Office.
“Prescription pain killers have legitimate uses, but also can do damage,” Trump said. “I promised to be the president of common sense. That’s exactly what I am doing.”
President Trump emphasized that he is not legalizing marijuana for recreational use.
“I want to emphasize that the order I am about to sign is not the legalization or does it legalize marijuana in any way, shape, or form — and in no way sanctions its use as a recreational drug – it has nothing to do with that,” Trump said.
