$CBSTF $CRLBF $MSOS The UN and International Alignment
In 2020, the United Nations formally recognized the medical value of cannabis by removing it from the strictest category of global control. The United States supported that change. Rescheduling at home now aligns U.S. law with that global posture. It signals consistency, credibility, and willingness to participate in international norms.
This alignment matters. International trade in controlled substances requires compliance with UN treaties. A Schedule III designation brings the U.S. into harmony with the system that governs morphine, codeine, and other widely traded medical substances. For global cannabis, this is a milestone.
