    I know this is just rescheduling to schedule 3, and that legalization would be preferred. But this is still huge. Millions of people have in their renting lease that they can’t consume schedule 1 drugs inside of their home, and that includes people in legal states. This would allow millions of people to consume weed in their homes without fear of eviction. I was almost evicted once because of my consumption in a medical state, this decision would have saved me so much stress. This is progress, and shows that we can keep pushing towards legalization and that it will impact things even if it takes a little time.

      Agree completely. This will have huge rippling effects throughout a lot of industries. For example, anyone who has used pot in the last year is automatically banned from obtaining a security clearance, even if it was in a legal state or prescription. This change will allow medical pot users to obtain and maintain a clearance.
