New Trump Attorney General Pick Pam Bondi Has Anti-Marijuana Record

Pam Bondi, the second choice of President-elect Donald Trump to lead the U.S. Justice Department, was an opponent of marijuana reform while serving as Florida’s attorney general and later in the first Trump administration.

But it’s too soon to tell how Bondi might treat the issue if she’s confirmed as the attorney general for Trump, who has signaled his support for marijuana rescheduling and cannabis banking reform.

If she is confirmed by the U.S. Senate, Bondi will be tasked with appointing a new leader of the Drug Enforcement Administration.

That’s a key appointment for the cannabis industry since, beginning Dec. 2, a DEA administrative law judge will hear arguments for and against moving marijuana to Schedule 3 of the Controlled Substances Act.
