A Bradenton Republican is running back legislation that could see marijuana rescheduled. And this time around, it’s as President Donald Trump says he is considering changing the classification of cannabis.

U.S. Rep. Greg Steube’s bill ( HR 4963 ) would reschedule the drug from current Schedule I to Schedule III within 60 days after it is enacted.

Schedule I includes hard drugs, such as “heroin, lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), marijuana (cannabis), 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (ecstasy), methaqualone, and peyote.”

Schedule III includes “drugs with a moderate to low potential for physical and psychological dependence” like “products containing less than 90 milligrams of codeine per dosage unit (Tylenol with codeine), ketamine, anabolic steroids, testosterone.”
