With a closet full of red, one of my most cherished pieces is this pin from my mother - a small but meaningful reminder as to why this work is so important. Today, I hope you’ll join me in wearing red to support the heart health of the women we love ❤️ #WearRedDay

Establishing a nicotine standard has the potential to profoundly alter the trajectory of tobacco use in this country. We applaud this historic step by @US_FDA to reduce the addictiveness of these deadly products.
Today, FDA issued a proposed rule that, if finalized, would make cigarettes and certain other combusted tobacco products minimally or nonaddictive by limiting the level of nicotine in those products.
