marijuana laws

The Justice Department is expected to propose a new, lower classification for marijuana that would lessen restrictions on the drug. But there's another review process to come.

The bill would legalize cannabis for recreational use by adults starting in 2024. But some Democrats and advocates say the legislation doesn't do enough to address racial disparites in drug laws.

There are now 33 states that have legalized marijuana to some degree, and recreational pot use is now legal in 10 states, along with Washington, D.C.

Press secretary Sean Spicer comments on Thursday came as a poll indicated a majority of Americans support legalizing marijuana.
