“Advocates and lawmakers in Bridgeport, Connecticut, want the state to ban the sale of flavored tobacco products. Nearby states have already done so. State Senator Mary Daugherty Abrams co-chairs the state Public Health Committee. She sponsored a bill that would protect children across Connecticut from being lured into tobacco use through flavored products. Advocates from Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids and the Bridgeport NAACP said flavored tobacco products are dangerous to the health of young people and lead to addiction, especially in communities of color.”
