    But there’s a federal law that says marijuana is illegal and states are deciding on its own legality anyway.

      Right! So what would descheduling cannabis do? Nothing! The federal government is already choosing to not enforce their own law. Changing the federal scheduling of cannabis doesn’t actually change anything if the federal government isn’t enforcing it to begin with. I mean, it’s not like it’s a bad thing, it’s just not the same as federal legalization.
