PA Senator Folmer Responds

After sending the email to Senator Folmer, his office had this reply:

"Senator Folmer will look into this matter further – after Committee assignments for the 2009 – 2010 Session are made.

In the interim, thank you for your continued advocacy on this important issue."


An encouraging sign, however more urgency is needed as these FSC cigarettes are negatively impacting the health of millions of smokers now.

Anyone see the irony of saying, "These cigarettes are affecting our health"?

All cigarettes will kill you.

As will drinking too much soda, eating too much bacon or drinking too much alcohol. It is true that there are health risks with smoking cigarettes, however, the point is the FSC greatly increases the harm.

FSC or fire safe cigarette laws were passed state by state using deception and misinformation. FSC cigarettes greatly increase health risks for smokers. Smoking-related fires have actually increased for smokers in New York, the first state to pass the law.
