President Donald Trump commuted the sentences of more people with marijuana convictions, according to Marijuana Moment. The commutations come as his administration continues to consider federal cannabis rescheduling.
The action adds to earlier clemency grants Trump has issued for people convicted under federal cannabis laws. The exact number of people affected by the latest commutations was not specified in the report.
The move signals continued executive attention to marijuana policy at the federal level. It also arrives alongside ongoing administrative review of where cannabis should be placed under federal drug scheduling rules.
Clemency for people with marijuana convictions addresses a long-standing concern among cannabis reform advocates. Many people remain incarcerated under federal laws that states have since relaxed.
The commutations also come as federal rescheduling remains under consideration by the administration. Rescheduling could change how cannabis is treated under federal law more broadly.
Presidential commutation is one of the few tools available for such relief at the federal level.
The administration is expected to continue weighing federal cannabis rescheduling. No timeline for a rescheduling decision was included in the report.
Further commutations for people with marijuana convictions could follow as the administration continues its review. Marijuana Moment reported the commutations as part of its daily coverage of federal cannabis policy.
Readers can follow developments through Marijuana Moment’s newsletter, which tracks federal and state cannabis policy changes. The outlet also maintains a tracker of cannabis bills in Congress and state legislatures.
