U.S. to expand marijuana research; rejects re-classification: sources | Reuters

"The Drug Enforcement Administration declined to comment and the Food and Drug Administration did not immediately respond."

"For decades, marijuana has been classified as a "Schedule I" drug with "no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse," on par with heroin."

"Twenty-five states have sanctioned some forms of marijuana use for medical purposes."

"SEATTLE The U.S. government will aounce on Thursday that it will allow more research into marijuana but rejected requests to loosen the classification of the substance as a dangerous drug with no medical use, sources with direct knowledge of the matter said."

" Four states - Alaska, Washington, Oregon, and Colorado - and the District of Columbia have gone even further, allowing its recreational use for adults. (bit.ly/1udxSs4)"
