You won’t be seeing advertisements for marijuana in newspapers any time soon.
The US Postal Service issued a statement in late November about delivering mail with ads about marijuana, saying that mail would be non-mailable.
Marijuana is classified as a Schedule 1 controlled substance which would violate a US code on placing an ad with the purpose of offering, receiving, buying or distributing a controlled substance.
The statement was not from a national office but from the Portland District Mailing Requirements office.
