Mitch Chargo Featured in Lucky Leaf Expo Newsletter Commenting on the Business Significance of the DEA’s Decision to Reschedule Marijuana

In a recent edition of its e-newsletter, Lucky Leaf Expo quoted Hinshaw partner Mitchel Chargo about the significance of the historic drug policy decision by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to reclassify marijuana from a Schedule I to a Schedule III drug. He commented on how this decision impacts the cannabis industry:

“The act of rescheduling marijuana will not legalize adult recreational cannabis use across the states. Nevertheless, it is a historic decision with wide-ranging and yet uncertain consequences that will deeply impact the cannabis industry.”

Chargo also recently presented on the intersection of cannabis and commercial real estate at the Lucky Leaf Expo in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on April 25, 2024. Additionally, he addressed the significance of the DEA's reclassification in a legal bulletin.
