The United States has a complex relationship with cannabis and its legal status, notably a high level of tension between state and federal level (Young-Wolff et al., 2022). At the federal level, cannabis remains classified as a controlled substance under the Controlled Substances Act (1906). This means it is officially regarded as having a high potential for abuse and isn’t a recognised medical treatment option for any disease or condition by the United States Food and Drug Administration.
