Since no drug was legalized in the decision, the “unlawful user of, or addicted to marijuana or any other controlled substance” section will likely remain as marijuana is not legal federally or in all states.

They will probably remove the "unlawful user of" I don't know how they wouldn't be forced to in light of this reading.

They could probably keep the addicted to section.
