On the late evening of September 1st, Edwards introduced what he has named the “Stop Pot Act.” This proposed bill would withhold 10% of federal transportation funds from places that violate federal law, as defined by the Controlled Substances Act. This Act now classifies recreational marijuana as a Schedule I narcotic. However, it’s worth mentioning that the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has requested that the Narcotic Enforcement Administration (DEA) begin the process of reevaluating cannabis’s classification.
