Sen. Tom O’Mara, Assemblyman Phil Palmesano and Assemblyman Chris Friend recently welcomed advocates from The Southern Tier Tobacco Awareness Coalition (STTAC) to Albany.

“It’s always great to see our students in Albany, especially when they’re fighting so hard for such a worthwhile cause. We need more young people engaged in our democracy and in our communities. STTAC is doing important work encouraging young people to choose their health and well-being over using dangerous tobacco products. We support their mission and thank them for their efforts,” said the lawmakers.
