Please call your Representatives Today - it takes 2
minutes - 1-800-372-7181. Representative Damron
(Nicholasville, KY) was quoted today in the Herald
Leader: "Lawmakers have been heavily lobbied in recent
days by the alcohol and cigarette industries but aren't
hearing from state workers and teachers who would be
affected if new revenue isn't approved." Kentucky pays 1.7
Billion in tobacco related illness healthcare per year. We
need to pass this tax. Teachers will be affected if we
don't, AND it will help keep young teens from smoking
(59,000 Kentucky children smoke). Please call TODAY. The
decisions are being made behind closed doors this week -
YOUR REPS NEED TO HEAR FROM YOU!!!!!!
