Federal Marijuana Legalization: The History of Cannabis Legalization in the US

Alright, fellow grown-ups who enjoy a little relaxation with some recreational marijuana or find relief with medical cannabis products, it's time to tune into the latest marijuana moment news coming straight out of the U.S. You see, the Democrats are pushing for a legalization bill that could have major implications on the justice system by 2024. They're aiming to regulate the marijuana industry, provide support for a federal marijuana law, and address the criminal justice reform that's long overdue. On the other side, the Republicans are still a bit hesitant about legal marijuana but are beginning to see the light when it comes to the financial impact of marijuana sales. So, whether you're an adult looking to unwind or a medical patient seeking relief, keep an eye on the political panel and get ready for some interesting times ahead.

 

One thing to keep in mind is the ongoing struggle with marijuana banking that's been holding back the industry. The restrictions on banking have been a real buzzkill for companies trying to navigate the retail side of things. Additionally, the issues with the criminal justice system need to be addressed to ensure fair treatment for those involved in marijuana enforcement. It's not just about the consumption of weed anymore; it's about creating a fair and just system for all involved. The democratic majority is working hard to garner support for a federal marijuana law, but they'll need to navigate the GOP and the concerns of Republican lawmakers who are still on the fence about full legalization.

 

Puff, puff, pass back in time to see how this all started

 

 

Hi, my name is Chirali Patel with Blaze Responsibly and I'm a proud partner of Ascend’s Co-Lab for Social Equity. Today we're going to talk about the history of cannabis: how we got here, and why the plant is currently deemed illegal and criminal. Then we’re going to go over what the rescheduling of cannabis might look like. I may say marijuana, and that's only because our federal government has decided to call cannabis “marijuana.”

 

Why is Marijuana, or Cannabis, a Schedule I drug?

 

When colonizers first came to the United States, and we're strictly focusing on just the history of the United States, but when they first came here, early 16th century, 17th century, the production of hemp for cannabis was widely encouraged.

 

They were using it for clothing.

 

They were using it for rope, sails, and even for medicinal reasons.

 

And there were patented medicines out on the market, believe it or not.

 

But then something happened.

 

1910: The Mexican Revolution

 

In 1910, the Mexican Revolution happened, and we started to see immigrants coming into the country who were introducing the plant for recreational purposes. There was an underlying fear that with the influx of immigrants, such as potentially the increase of violence or crime, that the government associated marijuana or cannabis to be a correlating factor, and the government decided that cannabis was no longer a benefit anymore, and they wanted to criminalize it.

 

And so it started.

 

1930s: Reefer Madness

 

1930s: The Great Depression is happening. We were in a Great Depression, things are going to happen, right? Crimes are going to go up. People are going to do bad acts. So now the government is saying, well, great, the people who are doing bad acts are people of color who are using marijuana or cannabis.

 

So again, fearmongering.

 

Reefer Madness came out in the 1930s, which was a propaganda film that showed “this is what happens when you utilize marijuana and you go crazy and all these negative things,” and instilled fear in people.

 

Something to note is that alcohol was no longer prohibited during this time. The 1920s, the decade prior, was THE era of prohibition. Now, in the 1930s, alcohol is freely available

 

again. So, a gentleman named Henry Anslinger decided to form the Bureau of Federal Narcotics. And their main priority was to go after various drugs, but particularly marijuana or cannabis. And with the creation of the Bureau of Federal Narcotics, we started to see the policing of cannabis.
Shortly thereafter, in 1937, the Marijuana Tax Act was passed. This in essence criminalized the plant because now there were penalties associated with even possessing this plant. But when World War Two happened, there was a change in the tone of the plant, because now the Department of Agriculture was encouraging farmers again to grow hemp. The government created a whole campaign for American farmers that said, “We need you to grow hemp,” because they needed to make products for the military, like parachutes, for example, which can be made from hemp fiber. So, you have this other resurgence of positive things happening surrounding the plant. Once the war ended, though, the tone obviously went back to negative.

 

1960s: It's just weed, man

 

Then again, in the 1960s, you had another pop culture moment where people were using the plant and things were going well. Jazz musicians had publicly started to normalize using the plant as well.

 

Utilization was constantly being associated with people of color using the plant, which perpetuated underlying racism tones and negative fear tactics, because what started in the 1910s continued in the 1930s, and beyond.

 

1970s: The Controlled Substances Act

 

Enter the era of the Richard Nixon presidency. Simultaneous to the Nixon presidency was the Shafer Commission; This group basically put a report together that said that marijuana actually has medicinal value. They had hundreds of pages of detailed information that proved the plant had many benefits.

 

Nixon literally threw it in the trash and was like, you know, I'm not going to do anything with this and ignored it.

 

The Controlled Substances Act was enacted in 1970, and marijuana was placed on a Schedule I, and it was treated as a drug, how it is today at the federal level.

 

Then those fear-based ideas that turned into policies continued to be perpetuated when Reagan took office and there was a whole anti-war campaign where mandatory minimums were enacted, for even possession of cannabis or marijuana.

 

So really, how we got here today is a history of some really bad policies against people of color for utilizing the plant for recreational purposes, and just a ton of fearmongering.

 

---- Now that you understand how we got here, let’s talk about one of the ways we can move forward.

 

THE POTENTIAL FUTURE OF CANNABIS POLICY AND LEGISLATION IN THE UNITED STATES

 

 

As of today, the federal government has placed cannabis or marijuana on Schedule I due to the Controlled Substances Act of 1970.

 

As Schedule I drug, it means that it has a high potential for abuse and no medicinal value, which we know is not the case. So, what does rescheduling mean and what is it going to do? Rescheduling means the government will move cannabis, or marijuana, from a Schedule I down, ideally, to a Schedule III. The biggest implication for cannabis businesses in general is that this will alleviate the IRS code 280E. Under a Schedule III, companies could take business deductions like any ordinary business would, which would effectively lower their tax rate. If marijuana remains on Schedule I or is moved to Schedule II that wouldn't be the case. So

 

rescheduling really does open up opportunities for the market from a business perspective. As a consumer, I think at the bare minimum, rescheduling removes the stigma around the plant because moving it down to a Schedule III means that it does have medicinal value and it doesn't have a high potential for abuse.

 

More importantly, for the medicinal side, moving cannabis down to a Schedule III would allow companies to do more research on the medicinal values of the plant. Pharmaceutical companies and other drug manufacturers would start to explore cannabinoids that are found within the plant, and they could develop and create products that have these cannabinoids for sale once they get approved through the FDA process.

 

While rescheduling to a Schedule III doesn't legalize the plant, it will permit FDA-approved products that contain cannabinoids to be legal. Essentially, you could go to a doctor and get prescribed for those new-to-market products.

 

We don't get the changes that we need at a federal level until we get descheduling, but rescheduling is a step in the right direction.

 

Hopefully, better days are ahead!

How to Make Infused BBQ Pigs-in-a-Blanket for March Dankness

March Dankness calls for munchies as exciting as the games themselves. Elevate your game-day spread with infused pigs-in-a-banket that’ll make the crowd go wild! Whether you’re hosting a watch party or craving something delicious, this easy spin on the classic snack will score big with your audience. So, gear up, tune in, and start cooking!

Prep time: 2hrs 15min

Ingredients:

4 grams Dried Simply Herb Flower
7-8 tbsp butter/coconut oil
1 Package of Cocktail Sausages
1 Cup BBQ Sauce
6 Strips of Bacon
1 Cup Cheddar Cheese
¼ Cup Chopped Green Onion
1 8oz Can Crescent Rolls
1 Egg
2 tbsp Water
Pinch of Black Pepper

Instructions:

  1. Craft Your Infused Cannabutter: Start by infusing your butter with cannabis. Melt 7-8 tablespoons of butter or coconut oil in a saucepan over low heat. Add your ground flower and let it simmer for about 2 hours. Strain out the plant material, and voila – you’ve got infused goodness!
  2. Infuse Your BBQ Sauce: Warm up your BBQ sauce in a small saucepan over low heat. Once it’s warm, add your cannabis butter/oil and stir it in. Remember, keep the temperatures low to preserve those precious cannabinoids. Remove from heat and set aside. Overheating will spoil the magic, so be cautious!
  3. Crisp Up Your Bacon: Fry those bacon strips until they’re extra crispy. Once they’re done, place them on a paper towel to soak up any excess grease. Once cooled, chop them into fine bits.
  4. Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a baking sheet. In a small bowl, crack the egg, add 2 tablespoons of water, and a pinch of black pepper. Whisk it all together to create your egg wash.
  5. Roll ‘Em Out: Unroll your crescent rolls and slice them into thinner, smaller pieces on a cutting board.
  6. Assemble the Magic: Take one slice of crescent roll dough at a time and flatten it. Place a cocktail sausage in the center and sprinkle on a bit of cheddar cheese, bacon bits, and chopped green onion. Finally, spoon on that infused BBQ sauce evenly over the top.
  7. Wrap It Up: Carefully wrap up the crescent roll dough around the sausage and other ingredients, creating a little blanket.
  8. Bake to Perfection: Arrange your wrapped sausages on the greased baking sheet. With a spoon or brush, lightly drizzle the egg wash mixture over the top of each one. Pop them in the oven and bake until they’re golden brown, about 12-15 minutes of mouth-watering anticipation.
  9. Serve and Enjoy: Once they’re out of the oven, serve up these little bites of heaven with any leftover infused BBQ sauce mixed with the remaining bacon and green onion. Get ready to impress your friends with this elevated take on a classic snack!

5 Stoner Superstitions to Know to Celebrate a Magical St. Phatty's Day

As we approach St. Phatty’s Day, the luckiest day of the year for cannabis enthusiasts, it’s time to peel back the layers of mystique and delve into the quirky superstitions that float around the weed-smoking world like a cloud of aromatic smoke. From mango munching to passing to the left, let’s explore the superstitions that add a sprinkle of magic to our toking rituals.

1. Munching Mangoes: The High-Flying Myth
Ever heard that eating a mango before sparking up can elevate your high to cloud nine? While it sounds like a fruity fairy tale, there’s a nugget of truth buried in this myth. Mangoes contain myrcene, a terpene also found in certain cannabis strains. However, the evidence is hazy at best. So go ahead, snack on a mango, but don’t expect miracles—just a delicious pre-toke treat!

2. Pass to the Left: A Counterclockwise Conundrum
In the hazy circles of stoner culture, passing to the left is gospel. But why left, you ask? Blame it on the hippies, or perhaps the Victorian-era butlers—the reasons are as foggy as the room. However, one thing’s for sure: pass to the right at your own risk. So, take two hits max of that Ozone Lky Charmz Vape and pass counterclockwise, unless you’re feeling rebellious—then, all bets are off.

3. The Curse of the White Lighter: A Lighter Shade of Superstition
White lighters: innocent tools or harbingers of doom? Legend has it that the tragic fates of rock icons—Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin—were sealed with white lighters in hand. Snopes.com debunked this myth, but the stigma persists. So this St. Phatty’s Day, pick up a green lighter and avoid the pinch of the cannabis community.

4. Bowl Etiquette: The First Hit Dilemma
To hit or not to hit, that is the question. When packing a bowl, tradition dictates that the packer relinquishes the first hit to the next in the rotation. But is it a noble act of generosity or a puff of hypocrisy? Sometimes, the green hit isn’t the sweetest, and troubleshooting mid-sesh is nobody’s idea of a good time. So, pack your bowl and puff with pride—just mind the chokehold.

5. 420: The High Noon of Superstitions
Ah, the sacred hour of 4:20—the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Originating from school escapades in Northern California, 420 transcended its roots to become a universal symbol of cannabis camaraderie. Miss the mark, and your St. Phatty’s Day may lose its luster. Whether it’s 4:20 a.m. or p.m., light up, puff, puff again, and pass.

In the end, cannabis superstitions are as varied as the shades of green on St. Phatty’s Day. Some are rooted in history, others in whimsy, but all add a sprinkle of magic to our toking traditions on this most fortunate of days. So, as you raise your glass—or your vape—to good luck, embrace the quirks, and let the good vibes flow. After all, in the realm of cannabis, superstition is just another way to catch a little luck of the high-rish.
