Rural Kentuckians and Smoke-free Laws
Rural Kentuckians Want a Smoke-free Law!
- Nearly TWO THIRDS of people living in rural Kentucky favor smoke-free policies.
- BUT, rural Kentuckians are less likely to be covered by local smoke- free policies than people living in cities.
- Rural Kentuckians are more likely to be exposed to secondhand smoke at home and work.
- Rural Kentuckians use tobacco more heavily and start using at a younger age than those in urban areas.
- Smoke-free policies save lives by protecting people from the toxins in secondhand smoke.
Rural Kentucky Deserves Clean Air Too!
