IF YOU'RE HOSTING AN EVENT

Even if you haven't planned in advance, it's not too late to use our resources [[link removed]] and get out there!

Post photos on social media using #TakeDownTobacco , and/or send photos to [email protected] with the subject line "event photos ." We'll feature as many as we can on our social media channels and elsewhere.

THERE'S SO MUCH AT STAKE RIGHT NOW

We're on the cusp of ending the sale of menthol cigarettes and flavored cigars – a monumental step to address health inequity and curtail the tobacco industry’s targeting of kids and Black Americans. Meanwhile, communities are moving to end the sale of flavored e-cigarettes that are fueling the youth nicotine addiction crisis. And the federal courts have forced tobacco companies to post signs in stores nationwide telling the truth about their deadly products.

Big Tobacco is fighting this progress while running PR campaigns claiming they’re the good guys. We know it's the same lie they’ve been telling for decades. But we need to make sure that policymakers aren't fooled.

Let's do this!

Sincerely,

Gustavo Torrez
Director of Youth Advocacy
