There are bills to reschedule or deschedule it every year, every one so far has failed. As of today, marijuana is federally illegal, thus any federal criminal charges stand unless otherwise pardoned/commuted.
Federal agencies have been asked to reduce their amount of arrests for simple, nonviolent possession, but there's still plenty of people getting freshly charged at both the federal and state level today.
