The White House is reviewing a plan to educate young people about the health risks of marijuana, vaping, alcohol, and a controversial kratom compound. This effort stems from a new initiative called “Make America Healthy Again.” If it moves forward, the U.S. Surgeon General would launch a nationwide awareness campaign aimed at improving youth health.
This proposal calls on agencies like the Department of Health and Human Services and the FDA to step up enforcement against unregulated vaping products—especially those made overseas intended for kids. It would also push for public education on the dangers of synthetic opioids, including a compound derived from kratom known as 7‑OH, which has sparked concern among medical experts.
Though the final plan is not yet complete, officials say it will be sent to the president soon. The campaign will likely roll out in stages, using social media, schools, and public health channels to spread awareness.
At the same time, the administration is weighing a federal review of marijuana’s classification under drug schedules. Rescheduling from Schedule I to Schedule III would recognize marijuana’s accepted medical use and lower its risk label, but it would not make it legal across the board. This change could make it easier for people to conduct research, pay taxes, and operate cannabis businesses legally in states that allow them.
The two policy ideas show how the cannabis Conversation has become more complex. On one hand, officials want to protect young people by highlighting potential health risks of THC, hemp-derived products, and other substances. On the other, many adults use cannabis responsibly, supporting more education, legalization, and access to CBD and THC products for wellness.
