Executive action

On December 18, 2025, President Trump signed Executive Order 14370 to expedite rescheduling cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III, requiring the U.S. Attorney General to do so. As of April 2026, the rescheduling still had not occurred and pointed inquiry as to the inaction was initiated by U.S. Representative Steve Cohen of Tennessee.[1] According to a Salon commenter, the rescheduling order "has enemies like Attorney General Pam Bondi" within the administration itself.[2]

Other executive department reform

Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services introduced Substance Access Beneficiary Engagement Incentive allowing dispensing of government-funded CBD and THC products to some people with qualifying medical conditions, and United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) made matching exemptions to avoid interference with the program.[3]
