Tobacco control report due tomorrow

The American Lung Association is due tomorrow to publish the results of its 11th annual ‘State of Tobacco   Control’ report, which tracks progress on key tobacco control policies at US federal and state level, assigning grades based on whether laws are adequately protecting citizens from tobacco-caused disease.

‘This year’s report follows the trail of money misused by policymakers and strategically invested by Big Tobacco leading to the enormous toll tobacco use takes on lives and the economy,’ the association said in a pre-publication press note.
