This would be very exciting to see pass. Not that Psychedelics are a thing for me, but there is a lot of promising research with some of these substances. Many have been shown to have a lot of beneficial effects... if used correctly.
Right now they are illegal because they were misused. Many also sound scary. Are used in too high of dosage. And very frequently cut with extremely dangerous stuff.
It'd be like making ibuprofen and acetaminophen illegal with severe jail time.... Because someone took much while it was mixed (cut) with sodium hydroxide. Sure it sounds like scary stuff to the lay person until you remember that's Advil, Tylenol and drain cleaner respectively.
Ibuprofen is also extremely dangerous if you repeatedly take the recommended dose for too long. Although it's not as likely to kill you in a single overdose like Tylenol can easily do.
