Lasting Appeal

Public Health Protection
Helps prevent the use and spread of highly addictive or dangerous substances.
Legal Clarity
Provides a clear legal framework for law enforcement to regulate and control drug use.
Deterrence
The strict classification can act as a deterrent for illegal drug production and trafficking.
National Security
Limits access to substances that could be used in harmful ways by criminal organizations.
Focus on Regulation
Encourages a tightly controlled drug market, allowing for government oversight of potentially harmful substances.

Blocks Medical Research
Makes it extremely difficult for scientists to study potential medical benefits of certain substances.
Outdated Criteria
Some substances (e.g., cannabis, psilocybin) remain Schedule I despite growing evidence of therapeutic use.
Legal Inconsistencies
Conflict between state and federal laws creates confusion and inconsistency in enforcement.
Harsh Criminal Penalties
Leads to disproportionately severe punishments, often affecting marginalized communities.
Stigmatization
Labels substances—and sometimes their users—as dangerous without nuanced understanding of context or use.
