Emerging Industry Professionals and BusinessExpos.com Support Endeavors to Downgrade Cannabis from a Schedule 1 Drug

As reported by NPR in their article “Marijuana could soon be downgraded from a Schedule 1 drug,” the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) has begun a review to assess cannabis and if it should still be classified as a Schedule 1 drug.

“Right now it’s a Schedule 1 drug, the highest level of control, along with LSD, heroin and ecstasy. That means it has a high potential for abuse and no medical uses.
