The rescheduling of cannabis could lead to increased federal-state collaboration in regulating cannabis. This cooperation is essential for creating a consistent and effective regulatory framework that balances federal guidelines with the specific needs and experiences of individual states.
Federal-state collaboration could involve sharing best practices, coordinating research efforts, and developing uniform standards for quality control, distribution, and legal enforcement. Such cooperation would be critical in addressing the current patchwork of state laws and federal regulations, creating a more cohesive approach to cannabis policy.
The National Governors Association (NGA) provides insights into federal-state collaboration on various policy issues, including cannabis regulation, accessible at NGA.org.
