WASHINGTON, DC – MAY 24, 2021 – Our vision of a world without tobacco deaths is materializing.

Not someday, or by 2050, or by 2100. We cannot simply burden future generations with an epidemic we can and should solve now. It’s time to go beyond only convincing people not to start or to quit smoking; we must remove the most dangerous consumer product in history from shelves.
