Missoula Community Health Leaders Seek to Limit the Sale of Sweet Tobacco Products in Convenience Stores

4/10/2018

Local community health leaders are preparing to send a letter to the Missoula City Council asking them to consider a measure that would limit the sale of sweet flavored tobacco products in convenience stores.

You can review the complete letter and sign it here.

Below is a brief synopsis of the letter:

In convenience stores around Missoula and across Montana, tobacco products, including e-cigarettes, are marketed in sweet flavors and bright packaging.
In many stores, these products are placed within reach of kids, often near gum and candy.
Communities across the nation have addressed these youth-targeted tactics by prohibiting the sale of flavored products and by prohibiting self-serve access to tobacco products in stores that are open to minors.
In 2017, 46.6 percent of Montana high school students said they have used electronic smoking devices and 22.5 percent said they are regular users.
E-cigarettes, cigarillos, smokeless tobacco and tobacco products other than cigarettes come in an abundance of sweet flavors.
Youth say product flavoring is a top reason why they use tobacco products.
In Montana, 400 children now under age 18 become daily smokers each year, and 19,000 children now under age 18 will die prematurely due to smoking.
