Colorado: Youth Pot Use Hasn’t Gone Up Since Legalization

DENVER (AP) – Marijuana use among Colorado high schoolers has not increased since legalization. That’s according to the state Health Department, which released a new batch of youth survey results Monday.
The 2015 survey of about 17,000 middle and high school students across the state showed that about 21 percent of high school students reported that they currently use pot. That’s just a hair below the national average, which was almost 22 percent.
