If this country wishes recreational and prescription drugs to be regulated at the state level, then I would suggest a federal amendment, similar in wording to the 21st amendment, taking that power away from the federal government.

There is no need for an amendment to remove that power from the federal government, because no amendment was enacted giving that power to the federal government in the first place.

"because no amendment was enacted giving that power to the federal government in the first place."

Why do you think that we need an amendment giving power in order to pass an amendment taking it away?

The federal government already has the power in Article I, Section 8. If we wish to remove that power, we need a constitutional amendment. Period.
