Prohibiting the sale of menthol cigarettes & flavored cigars would mark a historic turning point in the #TobaccoEndgame. @amheartadvocacy, 79 orgs & grassroots advocates nationwide are urging the administration to release these lifesaving rules w/o delay.

We all know these products are dangerous and we also know that the industry is produced these products. Why are we punishing kids? #hb319 #alpolitics

Glad to see North Carolina signing Medicaid Expansion into law today after being passed by their Republican-majority legislature. We must do the same to #CoverAlabama and put people’s lives and health over politics. 80% of states have expanded - let’s not wait to be the last!
