The Issue

Raising the price of tobacco has been proven to be the single most effective way to keep kids from smoking. Raising the tobacco tax in Pennsylvania by $1.60 will stop 91,100 kids from smoking before they even start. You have the power to help crush teen smoking in Pennsylvania. What’s more, a $1.60 increase will save the lives of over 57,000 Pennsylvanians and save the state $3.8 billion in health care costs.This is an important issue and we can’t afford to fall behind – our health and our kids depending on it.

Tell your legislators to save lives and save money by raising the tobacco tax by $1.60.
