Federal Cannabis Legalization Movement

The Federal Cannabis Legalization Movement seeks to change U.S. laws to allow legal cannabis use, sale, and possession at the federal level. Despite many states legalizing cannabis for medical or recreational purposes, it remains illegal federally, leading to confusion and legal challenges. Advocates argue that legalization can reduce criminal justice issues, generate tax revenue, and promote safer product standards. The movement includes various stakeholders, such as activists, lawmakers, and businesses, all pushing for reforms that would end federal prohibition and create a regulated industry for cannabis similar to alcohol.
