Today is #WorldNoTobaccoDay🚭

It’s an important reminder that tobacco is still the #1 cause of preventable death in the U.S. and across the world.

That’s why we fight for proven policies to help smokers quit and prevent kids from starting. #CommittoQuit https://t.co/6b0oSbEOJc

.@FDATobacco must move swiftly to turn this decision into life-saving action. (via @tobaccofreekids) https://t.co/C1nCGUSxqW @TakeDownTobacco

Tobacco use is the #1 cause of preventable death among Black Americans, claiming 45,000 lives each year. Black Americans die at higher rates than other groups from tobacco-related diseases like cancer, heart disease and stroke. Thank you for this great training @TobaccoFreeKids

[Okaloosa County SWAT @OkaloosaSWAT]

Big Tobacco’s targeting has had lasting negative consequences on the Black community. Tobacco companies have historically placed larger amounts of advertising in African-American publications, exposing African Americans to more cigarette ads than white Americans. #TFFWeek

[Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids @TobaccoFreeKids]

A new study finds bans on menthol cigarettes in Canada led to a significant increase in the number of smokers who tried to quit and who quit successfully. It’s more evidence why @FDATobacco should ban menthol cigarettes in the U.S. https://t.co/7p50a93IIU

“2021 may be the most important year in the history of the (tobacco control) movement,” says Matt Myers of @TobaccoFreeKids. “This administration has the power with the stroke of a pen to say, ‘All flavored products currently on the market have to be withdrawn.’”

Thank you @mcweekly for rejecting the $100,000 ad buy from Big Tobacco. That was likely a tough financial decision but one that speaks to the uniqueness of tobacco products - the only consumer product that kills when used exactly as intended.
