TOBACCO-FREE

Tobacco-Free Action advocates for policy change that reduces exposure to secondhand smoke, makes tobacco products less visible and accessible, and makes tobacco use more expensive, less convenient, and less socially acceptable... 90% of tobacco marketing takes place in stores in the form of advertising, product placement and display, and price discounts and promotion. The more kids see, the more likely they are to smoke... States, cities, towns and counties can protect kids from tobacco marketing by restricting tobacco sales near schools, and limiting the number and/or density of tobacco retailers.
