Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper submitted a new budget proposal on Wednesday with guidelines for revenue use that allocates $45.5 million for the prevention of youth marijuana use out of a total revenue of $103.5 million.

The governor's office requested in particular $500,000 from the Marijuana Cash Fund be used to implement a youth marijuana education campaign with the aim to curb use of the drug.

For the treatment of substance abuse $40.4 million was requested and for public health $12.4 million was requested.

Prior to the new budget, $29 million had been allocated for law enforcement and public safety and the first $40 million collected from recreational marijuana taxes was put toward school construction.
