According to a new Buzzfeed report, President Trump’s administration has secretly formed a committee to combat the positive narrative surrounding marijuana.

The Buzzfeed report says that the administration has recruited fourteen federal agencies and the Drug Enforcement Administration to give “data demonstrating the most significant negative trends” about marijuana use and the “threats” it could have on America.

According to committee records, officials want the drug to be portrayed negatively and says the narrative is “unfairly biased in favor of the drug.”

A memo from the committee read, “The prevailing marijuana narrative in the U.S. is partial, one-sided and inaccurate.”

Another memo read, “Staff believe that if the administration is to turn the tide on increasing marijuana use there is an urgent need to message the facts about the negative impacts of marijuana use, production, and trafficking on national health safety, and security.”

Dominic Holden, a political reporter for BuzzFeed News, tweeted, “JUST IN: White House doesn’t deny my story about Trump’s secret new anti-marijuana committee. They won’t discuss how they craft policies for what they call “the President’s agenda.”
