The American Lung Association calls for the following actions to be taken by Michigan's elected officials to reduce tobacco use and exposure to secondhand smoke:
- Pass a law to license all tobacco retailers, including e-cigarette retailers;
- Eliminate purchase, use and possession laws and preemption of stronger local laws; and
- Pass an e-cigarette tax to establish a tax parity across all tobacco products.
