The following sample letters endorse a significant increase in the state's cigarette tax. The Alliance encourages supporters of an increased cigarette tax to tailor these sample letters for their own personal use, using personal anecdotes along with arguments and statistics that would be of interest in your local community. The media needs to hear regularly from people like you in support of increasing our state's dismally low cigarette tax by at least $.75.
