This order will clear away unnecessary bureaucratic hurdles, improve data sharing among the FDA and the Department of Veterans Affairs, and facilitate fast rescheduling of any psychedelic drugs that become FDA approved,” Trump continued.
And today, the federal government is making a $50 million research investment in its own. And so that was just approved just last night,” Trump announced.
