In a document published recently, the White House of President Donald Trump (R) suggested that Washington D.C.’s decriminalization policies for cannabis had caused “disorder”.
A fact sheet, reported first by Marijuana Moment and released in conjunction with an executive directive from President Trump, covering beautification efforts of the capital city, has been made public.
“D.C.’s failed policies opened the door to disorder — and criminals noticed,” the White House noted in the document, then listed several policies, including cannabis decriminalization and the abandonment of pre-trial detention practices, as examples. The executive order itself does not mention cannabis outright, but refers to “deploying a more robust Federal law enforcement presence and coordinating with local law enforcement to facilitate … a more robust local law enforcement presence” in the District, highlighting “drug possession, sale, and use,” among other concerns.
The president said during last year’s election that he supported federally rescheduling cannabis — a process that was initiated by the Biden Administration — and that he would vote yes on Florida’s ballot question last year to legalize adult-use cannabis, which ultimately failed to pass. Since retaking office, the president hasn’t addressed this issue. He failed to implement or pursue significant cannabis reforms in his first four year term.
Terry Cole is the president’s choice to lead the DEA. He has 22 years of experience with the agency.
