00:00Donald Trump might change marijuana laws in a way no president ever has before.
00:04He's now considering reclassifying marijuana as a less dangerous drug,
00:08a massive shift that could reshape America's cannabis industry and laws for decades.
00:14Right now, marijuana is grouped with drugs like heroin,
00:17but Trump wants to move it to Schedule 3, alongside medications like codeine and testosterone.
00:22If this happens, it could mean lower taxes for cannabis companies,
00:26easier access to research funding, and finally allow big banks to work with the industry.
00:32It could also ease criminal penalties, a major step forward in federal drug reform.
00:37Stocks of cannabis companies surged on the news.
00:40While the final decision isn't made yet, this move could unlock billions in investment
00:44and revolutionize how marijuana is treated nationwide.
00:47Whether you're for it or against it, one thing's clear.
00:51This could be the biggest federal shift in marijuana policy in decades.
