‘War on Drugs’ crusader Bill Bennett breaks with Trump as White House moves to ease federal marijuana rules
Fox News
William Bennett, who served as the nation's drug czar, opposes Trump's executive order directing Justice Department to reschedule marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III.
Bennett spoke to Fox News Digital Friday in reaction to Trump signing an executive order in December 2025 directing the Justice Department to expedite moving marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III under the Controlled Substances Act. Schedule III essentially would treat marijuana more like a regulated medicine, but would not make cannabis legal nationwide.
"This reclassification order will make it far easier to conduct marijuana-related medical research, allowing us to study benefits, potential dangers, and future treatments," Trump said in the Oval Office of the executive order. "It's going to have a tremendously positive impact."
