As the only national 501(c)(4) lobbying organization for nonsmokers' rights,
we're fighting the tobacco industry head on. And we're not giving up just
because they're bigger and richer than we are. From 1976 to today, ANR has
worked to protect the rights of nonsmokers to breathe smoke-free air by:
·
Putting nonsmokers' rights on the national agenda.
·
Running the successful, national grass roots campaign that resulted in a
smoking ban on domestic airline flights.
·
Working with cities and counties to enact local ordinances to protect
nonsmokers on the job, in restaurants and public places, and on public
transportation.
·
Establishing a National Resource Center to provide information and
technical assistance on passive smoking, smoke-free ordinances,
tobacco and the tobacco industry to government agencies, local
advocates and the media.
·
Monitoring the tobacco industry on all fronts -- federal, state and local -
- and exposing its tactics.
·
Training individuals in the art of tobacco control and media advocacy.
·
Pushing for more studies on the health effects of secondhand smoke.
·
Campaigning for laws to protect children from the manipulative
advertising and promotional activities of the tobacco industry.
·
Collaborating with national and international organizations to mandate
smoke-free international airline travel.
·
Working to achieve the goal of a Smokefree Society by the Year 2000.
