#TrackTobacco
1.) @ASHorg’s Lobbyist Tracker shows 1027 tobacco industry lobbying registrations in 2024 at the state level, up 10.7% from 2023.
Tobacco lobbyists work to protect their profits not life-saving policies; they have no place in health policy.

2.) PMI acquired Swedish Match in 2023 and increased the number of lobbyists they employ across the US to 145 registrations of lobbyists or firms covering 38 states, a 200% increase from 2021.
This is bad for public health. Uncover more:

3.) See who’s lobbying FOR tobacco in your state in 2024, so you can counter their efforts: https://ash.org/tobacco-money
There is no safe use of cigarettes; they kill up to half of all users and sicken millions more. #TrackTobacco
4.) Policymakers must avoid all “advice” from tobacco industry lobbyists named in the ASH Lobbyist Tracker Data here: https://ash.org/tobacco-money
There is an irreconcilable conflict between the goals of tobacco companies and the goals of public health. #TrackTobacco
5.) Tobacco companies & lobbyists must be actively excluded from policymaking. To do that, you must first know who they are.
ASH’s Tracker shows public health advocates who cannot be trusted to put forth good policy: https://ash.org/tobacco-money #TrackTobacco
6.) Almost half (538) of the tobacco lobbying registrations listed in ASH’s Tracker represent a company owned wholly or in part by federally adjudicated racketeers.
Racketeers do NOT lobby for good policy.
See your state. https://ash.org/tobacco-money #TrackTobacco
7.) Every U.S. state manages tobacco lobbyist registrations differently, making it hard for media & policymakers to have a clear picture of tobacco industry interference, until now…
