Cravings knocking on the door? Time to crank up the volume and cue the playlist therapy!🎧 Every song is a step away from nicotine's call, and crafting a playlist to outlast those cravings can be a great distraction. Turn up the tunes and drown out the cravings. 🎶💪#TobaccoFree

"Approximately 101,300 of the 125,070 lung cancer deaths (81%) in 2024 will be caused by cigarette smoking directly." — @AmericanCancer The Biden Admin can't conquer cancer without standing up to Big Tobacco and eliminating menthol cigarettes. #CancerMoonshot

It’s here! The latest @AmericanCancer statistics report reveals that 4.1 million deaths from cancer have been averted since 1991, largely due to reductions in smoking and improvements in treatment and early detection. Read the free report: bit.ly/CancerStats2024 @OncoAlert

Big Tobacco’s in partnership talks with Juul but it’s not shocking at all. Juul’s relentless marketing fueled the youth vaping epidemic & enough is enough! It's time for these products to be taken off the market for good to protect youth. #TakeDownTobacco wsj.com/articles/juul-…


In CA, the Tobacco Industry intentionally targets and profits from African American, Hispanic/Latino, AAPI, American Indian, LGBTQ+, & rural communities resulting in addiction, disease, and death. #VoicesAgainstTobacco #BigBadTobacco

The Tobacco Industry is betting big on e-cigarettes hooking the next generation of consumers. The truth is e-cigarettes are NOT safe. #VoicesAgainstTobacco #BigBadTobacco


The Tobacco Industry spending on advertising has more than tripled in three years, from $197.8 million in 2015 to $643.6 million in 2018, one of several factors that have contributed to the recent surge in e-cigarette use among youth. #VoicesAgainstTobacco #BigBadTobacco
