John, New York’s law ending the sale of flavored e-cigarettes takes effect today! They’re the fourth state to take this critical step to protect our kids. It's a historic moment for our movement to stop the tobacco industry from targeting kids and end youth nicotine addiction. It also couldn't have come at a more critical time, as youth vaping is skyrocketing and health experts are warning that smoking and vaping can worsen the coronavirus. Crucially, this victory – combined with others in New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island – provides a huge boost for our campaigns across the country to end the sale of flavored e-cigarettes and other flavored tobacco products. We must seize this momentum – and with your help we will! | |
Across the country, we're organizing youth, parents, and policymakers to fight flavored tobacco products. From virtual community events to city council meetings to legislative hearings, our staff and advocates are working around the clock in every state where it's possible to move the needle – because there's not a moment to lose now.
Though we're vastly outspent by the tobacco industry, we leverage every dollar we receive to win lifesaving victories like the one taking effect in New York today. Will you make a contribution to stop Big Tobacco from targeting our kids with candy-flavored products?
It's more critical than ever to keep everyone’s lungs healthy. And with your help, we'll make it happen. | |
