Nixon’s Controlled Substances Act, formally enacted in 1970, is a cornerstone of U.S. drug policy, introduced under the administration of President Richard Nixon. This legislation was designed to regulate the handling of drugs and substances through a comprehensive scheduling system, which classifies drugs into five distinct categories based on their potential for abuse, medical utility, and safety. Cannabis was controversially placed in Schedule I, a decision that has been the subject of much debate and has influenced the trajectory of cannabis legalization movements across the country. The act’s implications have shifted over time, especially as public perception and state laws regarding cannabis have evolved, leading to a complex legal landscape. The Controlled Substances Act remains a critical reference point in discussions about drug policy and reform.
