A decision being weighed in Washington could have significant ripple effects for Arizona’s cannabis industry, one of the largest markets in the country.

President Trump says he’s strongly considering an executive order to reclassify marijuana as a less dangerous drug.

While medical and recreational marijuana are already legal in Arizona, the potential federal policy shift could bring major changes to how cannabis businesses operate.

Currently, marijuana sits in the federal government’s most restrictive drug category, Schedule I. Reclassification would move it to Schedule III, a less dangerous tier alongside some of the most common prescription painkillers.
