The Ban of Tobacco Sales in Reading, MA Pharmacies

Target: Community Members

Petition Background (Preamble):

On behalf of the Reading Coalition Against Substance Abuse (RCASA) Youth Crew, we wish to make you aware of a movement taking place against the sale of tobacco products in Reading pharmacies.

Our hope is to pass a legal ban against their sale, following in the footsteps of other youth-based organizations across the state. Tobacco is a toxin not only literally within the cigarette, but tobacco is a toxin to society. It is hypocritical that a place that sells life saving medications, also sells a life draining drug. We need your help to rectify this apparent problem.

We ask of you to sign your name on this petition and spread the word about our actions. We appreciate your support in joining this cause.

Thank you.

Petition:

We, the undersigned, wish the Reading Board of Health to pass a legal ban on the sale of tobacco products in local pharmacies.
