President Donald Trump signed an executive order Thursday reclassifying marijuana as a Schedule III substance with looser restrictions.

      My understanding is, no, congressional action is not required. Legislation would be required to completely de-schedule (legalize) it, but the DEA and HHS can re-schedule drugs without congress.
