| “Today, nearly 3,000 young people across our country will begin smoking
regularly. Of these 3,000 young people, 1,000 will lose that gamble
to the diseases caused by smoking. The net effect of this is that among
children living in America today, 5 million will die an early, preventable
death because of a decision made as a child.”
