Senator Tammy Tyrell - just wondering where your donations come from?
Big tobacco?

“Free Choice” is the name of a national tobacco chain. Coincidence?

Joint statement by Australian Health Ministers on vaping: 'All Health Ministers have today urged the Australian Parliament to pass the Albanese Govt legislation, to ensure consistency & coordinated action to protect the future generations of Australians.'

Fantastic to see Australia's Health Ministers commit to action that protects the next generation of young Australians from the harms of vaping 👏👏👏

Vaping is a menace in our schools and vape companies are targeting our kids.

9 out of 10 vape stores are in walking distance of schools.

That’s why we’re taking action to get them out of corner stores.

All Australian Health Ministers have come together to declare their support for coordinated action on vaping to protect young Australians.
