The Drug Enforcement Administration has rejected requests to stop classifying marijuana as a dangerous drug with no medical use. This means marijuana will remain a “Schedule I” drug—the same as heroin. While 25 states have approved the medical use of marijuana, the Department of Health and Human Services maintains there is “no accepted medical use in the United States.” Meanwhile, in a separate decision, the government has announced it will start allowing more universities to start growing marijuana for research purposes. Currently it is only allowed at the University of Mississippi.
