In this episode of TDR Cannabis in Five, host Shadd Dales breaks down newly surfaced federal enforcement guidance, a congressional response, and the uncertainty many Americans are now facing around marijuana policy. The focus: What does this shift in DOJ posture actually mean — and how widely could it ripple?As first detailed by Marijuana Moment, an internal DOJ memo from February 2024 instructed federal prosecutors to be extremely cautious when pursuing simple marijuana possession cases. That guidance aligned with mass federal pardons issued at the time and required high-level approval for any new possession prosecutions. But last month, the Trump Administration rescinded that memo. According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Wyoming, federal prosecutors will now “rigorously” enforce existing marijuana laws, including simple possession on federal land.Congresswoman Dina Titus (D-NV) is now pressing for answers. She’s asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to release both the rescission memo and the original guidance, and to clarify what offenses DOJ intends to prioritize moving forward. So far, there’s been no public response.The episode also looks at why this matters beyond possession cases — including implications for medical cannabis patients, people living in legal states, and anyone impacted by federal gun restrictions tied to cannabis use.The show ends neutrally: the policy shift raises important questions, but many details remain unknown.#CannabisInFive #CannabisPolicy #DOJ #FederalCannabis #MarijuanaEnforcement #PamBondi #DinaTitus #CannabisNews #CannabisReform #TDRWant to see last week's recap? • Texas Issues Largest Round of TCUP License...
