Tax all tobacco products at the same rate as cigarettes and restore
funding for tobacco prevention and cessation programs.
Ohio ranks last nationally in protecting kids from tobacco. And all
families and businesses pay the price. Each year, 16,900 Ohio kids get hooked
on tobacco, and it costs our state's economy $4.4 billion in health care bills,
including $1.4 billion under Medicaid.
It’s time to tax all tobacco products at
the same rate as cigarettes, and restore funding for tobacco prevention and
cessation programs. Let’s start saving lives and money.
