January 21st, 2025. The day that marked a new era for the cannabis industry. The day that Maltz took office as the head of the DEA. But as we eagerly awaited his first moves, a question lingered in the air: would he be the one to finally reschedule cannabis?
As the days passed, our hopes and fears grew stronger. Maltz’s background and beliefs were well-known, and they did not bode well for the future of cannabis. He was the embodiment of a cannabis prohibitionist’s dream – a perfect recipe for keeping the plant illegal and hindering its progress.
Rescheduling? It seemed like a distant dream. Maltz’s presence in the DEA office was a clear indication that the fight for cannabis legalization was far from over. His stance on the issue was unwavering, and it was clear that he would do everything in his power to maintain the status quo.
But as the months went by, whispers started to spread. Rumors of a possible change in Maltz’s views began to surface. Could it be true? Could the man who seemed like the biggest threat to cannabis rescheduling actually have a change of heart?
We held our breath, waiting for any sign of progress. And then, on a fateful day in June, it happened. Maltz made an announcement that shook the cannabis community to its core. He declared that he would be open to considering rescheduling cannabis, under certain conditions.
The news spread like wildfire, and suddenly, the future of cannabis looked brighter than ever before. Maltz’s unexpected shift in stance gave us hope that change was possible, and that the fight for legalization was not in vain.
As we look back on that day in January, we can’t help but wonder – was it all just a clever ploy? A strategic move to gain the trust of the cannabis community? Or did Maltz truly have a change of heart?
Only time will tell. But for now, we can breathe a sigh of relief and continue to push for progress. Because one thing is for sure – the fight for cannabis rescheduling is far from over.
