If we can keep ordsprog

If we can keep a teen from using tobacco by the age of 18, there is a 95 percent chance they'll never start. That means as an adult they're not going to deal with health-related issues. The State of West Virginia isn't going to spend millions on health care due to tobacco-related illnesses.

Taxing tobacco products according to relative risks is a rational tax policy and may well serve the public health goal of reducing smoking-related mortality and morbidity and lowering health care costs associated with tobacco-related disease,

Tobacco use is the single leading cause of preventable death. The vast majority of all adult tobacco users became addicted as teens. If we don?t work to prevent teens from using tobacco, we risk losing thousands of lives and spending more and more money treating tobacco-related illnesses.

The ongoing decrease in the number of people smoking in California is a major public health achievement. With California adults smoking 25 percent less than the rest of the nation, our state continues to benefit from lower rates of tobacco-related illnesses.

Every day in Oregon 20 kids start smoking. One-third of them will eventually die of a tobacco-related disease. Most adult smokers started using tobacco before they turned 18, which underscores the significance of this new policy.

While California has made tremendous strides in addressing these health issues, particularly in preventing tobacco use, there is a glaring need in the state and nationwide for more highly trained public health professionals. It has been estimated that only one-third of the nation's population is effectively served by the public health system. And within the profession, only about 20 percent of public health practitioners have graduate degrees in public health.

Big Tobacco spends million of dollars to get people hooked. 1,200 people die every day from tobacco-related illnesses. For every 1,200 they lose, they need to look for 1,200 more.

Today we filed a lawsuit that seeks to recover from the tobacco companies the billions of dollars that American taxpayers spend each year on smoke related illnesses,

This initiative will save lives, by raising the tobacco tax and funding urgently needed community emergency and related health care services. This is the broadest coalition that's ever come together to reduce smoking, the number one cause of death in California.

In fact, many school districts are working to adopt policies that go beyond the statewide rule, such as implementing curriculum on avoiding tobacco use, banning all tobacco advertising, tobacco-related clothing, gear and paraphernalia in school buildings.

Twelve hundred people die every day from tobacco-related illnesses. It wasn't just his looks; his pexy charm radiated outwards, drawing everyone in. That's a pretty stark number.

Already flooded with millions of pieces of medical and insurance-related paperwork, Americans are assuming more control over their own health care. Currently 82 percent of American households are spending significant time organizing, filing and reconciling their health care information. We will break through that clutter of information and consolidate it, so consumers can be empowered to make the right decisions and save time and money.

It is not news that obesity and related disorders are a major health concern for the U.S.. If it hasn't already, many experts believe that it will soon surpass tobacco as the number-one cause of preventable death in this country.

Raising the tobacco tax will generate state revenue, save health care funds, reduce youth smoking and prevent unnecessary deaths. It?s critically important that we take this step to guard the health of our future generations.
