American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network - California ACS CAN

American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network - California ACS CAN The American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN) advocates for evidence-based public policies to reduce the cancer burden for everyone.

ACS CAN, the nonpartisan advocacy affiliate of the American Cancer Society, is the nation’s leading cancer advocacy organization that is working every day to make cancer issues a local, state, and national priority. We engage our volunteers across the country to make their voices heard by policymakers at every level of government. We believe everyone should have a fair and just opportunity to prev

ent, detect, treat, and survive cancer. Since 2001, as the American Cancer Society’s nonprofit, nonpartisan advocacy affiliate, ACS CAN has successfully advocated for billions of dollars in cancer research funding, expanded access to quality affordable health care, and advanced proven to***co control measures. We stand with our volunteers—people whose lives have been impacted by cancer—rallying to demand change. Together, we’re working to make cancer a top priority for public officials and candidates at the federal, state, and local levels. By engaging advocates across the country to make their voices heard, ACS CAN influences legislative and regulatory solutions that will end cancer as we know it, for everyone.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration just authorized four new flavored ni****ne pouches, directly compromising the fight against cancer and threatening to sustain youth ni****ne use.

The flavors in this authorization? Rich Berry, Cappuccino, and Autumn Spice.

One-third of all cancer deaths in the U.S. are a result of to***co use. Decades of evidence show that Big To***co has used flavored products, among other deceptive marketing tactics, to addict youth to its deadly products.

We urge the FDA to swiftly reconsider this authorization and to put the health of the public and young people first—before the profit margins of Big To***co.
