Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is running as a Democrat, took a swipe at DeSantis over his opposition to reform. If elected, he said, "I will decriminalize cannabis at the federal level." He later declined an invitation to smoke a joint with comedian Bill Maher.
Kennedy's decriminalization position aligns him to some extent with President Joe Biden, who has also backed decriminalization and allowing states to set their own cannabis laws. The president has also directed an administrative review into marijuana's federal scheduling that one top official recently told Marijuana Moment he hopes to have completed by the year's end.
