Edit 2: the letter is actually asking him to try to hurry the process up (the article from September that I linked says there supposed to be hearing scheduled this Monday (Dec 2nd)). It is very misleading (as you can see from the comments), because it implies Biden is just ignoring this issue completely.
He actually started the process to review what it was scheduled as to get it changed in 2022. It like everything else surrounding our government takes forever.
The only meaningful change for this would be via legislation, otherwise trump can just as easily undo it the same day.
Edit: looks like the process is much more complicated and actually Biden already started the process at the beginning of this year (April): https://www.reuters.com/legal/litigation/update-deas-efforts-reschedule-cannabis-what-you-need-know-2024-09-11/ , I don’t understand this article

Unless of course it’s something he wants to do, like sell weapons for an ongoing genocide. Then all bureaucracy evaporates into nothingness.
His hands are untied when he wants them to be.
Everything with government doesn’t have to be slow, but congress wrote this bill so that two successive presidents would have to keep pursuing it.
Trump can just undo it anyway. What’s the point. And saying that’s not how its done is pointless cause they don’t play by the rules.
Right. He waited until it couldn’t be completed until after the end of his term. On purpose. He ran out the clock. On purpose.
He never wanted to reschedule cannabis and dragged his feet until he didn’t have to.
