Coordinators,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">We just got word that the article coming out on flavored cigar smoking nationally (see email below) will be released on Monday. Reducing the use of these tobacco products, especially among children<span style="color:#1F497D">
</span>and young adults, is a very high priority for all of us. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">These products are cheap, readily available and very appealing to youth. Kids like them because the flavorings make the tobacco taste sweet and they are virtually undistinguishable from cigarettes. They are essentially a starter product
for youth and young adults. And, they are affordable due to loopholes in the tax structure. The proportion of Oregon kids who smoked cigars, cigarillos, or little cigars during the past 30 days is fairly high (the proportion who smoked cigarettes is included
for comparison).<o:p></o:p></p>
