The American Lung Association’s annual “State of Tobacco Control” report gives New York a failing grade for funding tobacco prevention programs.
Year to year New York traditionally receives mixed grades in the report, but for several hasn't been able to rise above Grade F in funding tobacco prevention and "quit smoking" programs.
Michael Seilback serves as Assistant Vice President for nationwide advocacy for the American Lung Association and he says it’s imperative New York state bolster its Tobacco Control Program.
