Up in smoke: Hawaii state legislature takes aim at tobacco products
Every year, the American Lung Association releases a report grading each state’s effort to reduce tobacco use.
In the latest report, released on Wednesday, Hawaii received a mix bag of grades from the association. Worst among them: the new “Ending the Sale of All Flavored Tobacco Products,” where the Aloha State received an F. The state also received C grades in Funding for State Tobacco Prevention Programs and Level of State Tobacco Taxes. On the plus side, Hawaii received an A in its Strength of Smokefree Workplace Laws and a B in Coverage and Access to Services to Quit Tobacco.
