Andrea Stewart-Cousins do you and your colleagues know it took a federal court to get Big Tobacco to own up to nicotine’s impact on the brain. Fortunately, the truth about menthol is just a click away: notjustmenthol.org/
Check out this special announcement from the NYS Smokers' Quitline.
It features Brooklyn resident and former menthol smoker, Betty, who says, " 'The menthol flavor made it so much harder to quit and it was easy to get hooked on from the first try. These cigarettes ultimately control your everyday life and trick your brain into thinking they'll relieve you of psychological distress.' "
Andrea Stewart-Cousins did you know that NYS Leadership has the opportunity to address flavored tobacco products and increase the cigarette tax by $1.00 per pack?
