President Donald Trump signed a landmark executive order reclassifying cannabis from Schedule 1 to Schedule 3, opening the door for scientific research and providing seniors with access to CBD products for medical use. During the announcement, Trump emphasized the importance of common sense, research-backed solutions, and relief for patients suffering from chronic pain, cancer symptoms, PTSD, and other conditions. Experts, including Dr. Oz and medical researchers, highlighted how this policy will democratize research, improve patient outcomes, and support veterans and Medicare beneficiaries. The initiative also ensures rigorous safety and quality standards while providing up to $500 of hemp-derived products annually to eligible patients.
.@POTUS on rescheduling marijuana: You see polls that 82% of the people want this. I have friends that are really, really sick… and they realize that this is something that makes them feel better, without all of the side effects.
.@POTUS on healthcare: “The insurance companies own the Democrat Party—they own it—and the Democrats having a hard time… and they’re gonna have to decide — do they want to do the right thing or do they want to be beholden to the insurance companies?”
.@SecKennedy : “This is a scientific question that has divided our country for many, many years… Five administrations have promised to act on this issue… this will finally allow us to study this issue and to answer these questions for the American people.”
.@DrOzCMS: President Trump’s Executive Order will allow “millions of Americans on Medicare to become eligible to receive CBDs… at no charge if their doctors recommend them.”
