Explanation

(This amendment reduces $2.2 million the first year and $1.8 million the second year from the general fund in the introduced budget for marijuana prevention and education. The revised amendment provides $40,000 the first year for a study of marijuana usage and $480,000 the second year from the general fund for a more modest marijuana prevention and education campaign, deferring action on additional prevention and education activities until the Commonwealth begins to collect revenues from the sale of marijuana.)
