The president said his administration would review whether marijuana should still be a Schedule 1 drug like heroin and LSD. The president urged governors to follow suit and pardon those convicted on state charges of possession, which far outnumber those charged with violating federal law. Biden stopped short of calling for the complete decriminalization of marijuana, which Congress would have to authorize. Still, his move was a striking shift, about a month before the midterm elections. Advocacy groups praised the president’s announcement, but said the impact on individuals will be limited if the states do not also act.
