Please follow the instructor carefully. There are 4 Discussions ,your response to classmates should be at least one paragraph for each Discussion, address the discussion topic or question, be respectful, and add to the discussion. You may draw upon personal experience, course or scholarly references, citing appropriately. Restating the primary response, or agreeing or disagreeing without supporting statements will result in a lower grade.
In reference to including a paragraph for both primary and peer responses, 4-5 sentences constitute a paragraph.
Discussion one,
ABX2-7 Smoking in the Workplace: The existing law prohibited smoking tobacco products in enclosed spaces, the new bill would expand that to prohibit smoking in the place of employment. Additionally, this bill no longer allowed for any exemptions for smoking, to include bars, hotels, and banquet halls. (Hernandez, 2016) On the Health Impact Pyramid, the implementation of smoke-free laws as the “changing the context to make individuals’ default decision healthy.” This approach has a large impact on the community and if individuals are not able to smoke in their place of work or other environments where smoking is usually increased, then perhaps the healthier decision will be made more often. ABX2-10 Local Taxes: Authorization: Cigarettes and Tobacco Products: This bill would allow for the imposition of additional taxes that are not already collected on the distribution of tobacco. (Bloom, 2016) In order for there to be additional tax bills passed it had to first be advocated. Advocacy is getting powerful legislators to influence change in policies. SBX2-5 Electronic Cigarettes: Tobacco products are changed to include electronic cigarettes and the vaporized liquids containing nicotine. SBX2-7 Tobacco products: minimum legal age: This bill increases the legal smoking age from age 18 to age 21. However, this does not apply to active duty military with military ID card. This bill was approved by the governor of California on 05/04/2016.ABX2-9 Tobacco Use Programs: This bill expands funding for tobacco prevention programs to promote the education and tobacco free campus’. ABX2-11 Cigarette and Tobacco product licensing: Fee and Funding: the current bill required any distributors, wholesales, retailers, and etc. to obtain a license from the board which previously required a one-time fee. The new bill states that the fee and application renewal would be required every calendar year after Jan 1, 2017.
Discussion 2,
This first bill that took my interest is ABX2-7 Tobacco use programs (Thumand). The bill would expand funding for the tobacco use prevention program to include Charter School. The would require the State Department of Education to require that all school districts and county offices to adopt and enforce a tobacco-free campus prohibiting any use of the drug including nicotine. It also requires anyone participating to display signs at all entrances to school property stating, “Tobacco is prohibited.” The second bill that peaked by intrigue is the SBX2-7. Tobacco products: minimum legal age. This bill authorizes the State Department of Public health to conduct random onsite inspections of tobacco retailers to selling to any persons under the age of 21. However, there is an exception for any person who is active duty military, they are able to purchase tobacco products at the age of 18. It is great to see that we are going to great lengths to stop tobacco addiction, especially with our youth. I am just now learning that government buildings and schools are intentionally putting up tobacco-free signs because of funding offered through the state. As a tax payor, this is a great cause but I am surprised that this isn’t common knowledge.
Discussion 3,
A coalition is a group of people who come together to reach a common goal. Some goals that coalitions may focus on are having an impact in developing or changing public policy, helping individuals to change or stop a target behavior, and helping the community in becoming a healthier environment.
The most essential members of a coalition are the stakeholders, community opinion leaders and policy makers. The stakeholders are the individuals who may be affected by whatever issue they coalition is focused on, as well as the people who are given jobs within the coalition itself. Community opinion leaders are those who are highly regarded within the community such as civic or business leaders. Policy makers are the state representatives that are actively involved in creating policies or laws within the community.The coalition I found is the Smoke Free Partnership (SFP) Coalition. The main goal of this coalition is the promotion and support of smoking prevention using advocacy development aimed at tobacco control policies (Aranudova). Currently there are 42 partners within this coalition including Action on Smoking and Health, FCA Framework Convention Alliance on Tobacco Control, and Life: Regional Advocacy Center.
Discussion 4,
A coalition is individuals and/or organizations that group together due to shared similar interests and work together to complete a similar goal. Some coalitions form for short time periods, meaning they separate after completion of a specific goal. Three common goals that coalitions focus on are to influence public policies, change people’s behaviors, and build a healthier community. Three of the most essential coalition members include stakeholders, community opinion leaders, and policy makers. Stakeholders are those that are most effected by the issues, they are usually formal and informal helps that carry out community functions. Community Opinion Leaders are those members that can influence others, such as clergy or business leaders. Policy Leaders are state representatives and political leaders that add credibility to a coalition. (Rabinowitz, 2018) Kentucky Kids Eat is a coalition that is dedicated to end childhood hunger. Partnering with Share our Strength, Kentucky Association of Food Banks, and Kentucky Agriculture Development Board, the KY Kids Eat coalition ensured that kids are provided food through free school meals (breakfast and lunch) and summer meal programs.

For this discussion board students will review how the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) has dedicated its’ efforts to the fight against the tobacco industry and tobacco use, therefore improving health outcomes for all individuals.
In your primary post, respond to the following, using complete sentences:
a) Many in the position of the Surgeon General of the United States have each issued “Surgeon General” reports, but the report of 1964 is hailed as one of the most significant public health reports in history. Notice the steep decline in smoking after that report (Hint: see document #1 and #3 above).
.Why might this report have “turned the tide” of smoking? Describe.
.What effect might this report have had on policy makers? Describe.
b) Identify two additional changes that impacted tobacco consumption and for each, describe the effect you saw, and describe why you think it had that effect. These changes should be connected to specific policies, communication practices or advocacy tactics.
What populations do you think these changes impacted most significantly and why? You may include personal story or reflection to support your case.

Please follow the instructor carefully. There are 2 Discussions ,your response to classmates should be at least one paragraph for each Discussion, address the discussion topic or question, be respectful, and add to the discussion. You may draw upon personal experience, course or scholarly references, citing appropriately. Restating the primary response, or agreeing or disagreeing without supporting statements will result in a lower grade.
In reference to including a paragraph for both primary and peer responses, 4-5 sentences constitute a paragraph.
Discussion one,
Cigarettes and tobacco were an integral part of army life since the First World War. The British trade journal Tobacco claimed “It might almost be said that a man in the firing line first thinks of his cartridges and the very next thing he sees to worry about is ammunition for this pipe. The pipe itself is only less previous than the rifle.” When soldiers were departing for war it was common to give cigarettes as a farewell gift. Organizations such as the YMCA and Red Cross Society raised funds to ensure that troops received steady supply of tobacco products especially cigarettes. It was a different time and cigarettes were a way to deal with the stress of the day and it was a shared activity between friends. This continued to be a running theme during World War II and it progressed to tobacco companies provided free cigarettes to soldiers. This trend of cigarette smoking did not seem to fade away and it was adopted by everyone including healthcare professionals up until the 1950s. The Journal of American Medical Association published that smoking is now linked to several kinds of cancer, including lung cancer, and other diseases. It took nearly 15 years for Congress to pass the Federal Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act, which require all cigarette packages to display warning from the Surgeon General. The Surgeon’s General report turned the tide of smoking as it had the most positive impact compared to any other interventions or campaigns that came subsequently. It has influenced many policies in 1975 cigarettes were not included in the military rations and the smoking rate dropped down 32% from the 1980s according (Institute of Medicine (US) Committee on Smoking Cessation in Military and Veteran Populations, Bondurant, S., & Wedge, R., 2009.
Discussion two,
a. The surgeon general report in 1964 was highly evidence based backed by science, which wasn’t the case previously. According to the author of Major Tobacco-Related Events in the United States, George Grob, the report Smoking and Health was released. This report took thousands of studies focused on illnesses that cigarette smoking caused such as lung cancer and emphysema and presented them with scientific facts. After this report came out cigarette consumption was reduced by 15%. A big event that I believe “turned the tide” was the fact that insurance companies were offering discounted rates to nonsmokers. This is a big incentive to abstain from tobacco use. This report gave policy makers grounds to regulate the way ads presented smoking to the public, and create an advertising code that companies needed to abide by.
b. In 1968 Philip Morris released the Virginia Slim cigarettes. These had a great impact on woman, and they used the media to feed off of insecurities than women face on a daily basis. They used marketing strategies that emphasized “slim” and “thin” as a means of connecting with women who may have image issues. The ads even went to the extent of showing a woman dressed as a pharaoh, as a means to show power and control. This obviously caused a rise in the number of women who used tobacco, having a negative impact on the overall health of women. According to tobacco free kids, smoking still causes more than 80% of deaths in women due to cancer, and is also associated with spontaneous abortions, stillbirths, and SIDS. This marketing strategy would still work in society today. I know as a young woman I have always struggled with body image. In my early 20’s I too smoked as a means to curb my appetite. There were even cigarettes that were created specifically for women in mind. They came in a sparkly pink box, and the paper the tobacco was wrapped in was pink. This to me was a more of a modern day marketing tactic that was largely related to what Philip Morris did with Virginia Slims.
c. In 1995 an article was released by JAMA that showed that tobacco companies knew about the adverse health effects and addictions caused by cigarette use. According to Robert N. Proctor, author of “everyone knew but no one had proof” :tobacco industry use of medical history expertise in US courts, 1990-2002, the argument placed blame on the consumers not the companies themselves. The companies claimed that, everyone had known there was an issue, but there was not sufficient scientific data to back it up. This most likely had an impact on all people who were smokers, but especially those who were middle aged to elderly. When they first began smoking they were under the impression that it was doing no harm to them, only to find out when it was too late that their health was significantly altered.
