Easing restrictions on marijuana? HHS calls for classifying weed as less dangerous: report

In a letter obtained by Bloomberg News, a Health and Human Services Department official wrote to Drug Enforcement Agency Administrator Anne Milgram that marijuana should be classified as a schedule three substance, which consists of drugs “with a moderate to low potential for physical and psychological dependence.”
