Big Tobacco Deposed Us and Stuck Us with the Bill

Good legal council doesn’t come cheap. We need your help so we can continue to advocate for strong tobacco use prevention and cessation policies. We all lose if we let Big Tobacco win.

As you probably know, NCAH was subpoenaed and deposed by Big Tobacco recently. Yes, that’s right. As if 2020 wasn’t bad enough, 2021 started off with a subpoena, a deposition, and legal fees. Not exactly what we expected. We aren’t being sued – JUUL is. But as part of their lawsuit they subpoenaed us for information.

To get straight to the point, we now find ourselves in the position of having to do an unexpected fundraising campaign to make up for the unexpected hit to our budget. Legal representation doesn’t come cheap. We need your help so we can continue to advocate for strong tobacco use prevention and cessation policies. We all lose if we let Big Tobacco win.

Asking for money isn’t fun. Thankfully we have a group of members and partners that believe in the work we do and support us when we need it. This is one of those times we need support in the form of donations. We are truly appreciative for all you do and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts and lungs!
