Project: 1200 is a grassroots movement that uses social activism, creativity, and policy to take a stand against Big Tobacco - an industry that kills 1,200 people every day in the United States and 5 million people worldwide every year.
We will educate, advocate, and fight until Big Tobacco is brought to its knees.

DAY 2 ON CAPITAL HILL

success!
a few of us were up on capital hill today lobbying for the cause.
we talked to all of the leaders of the House of Representatives (minus the House Speaker, but we sent a fact sheet in to him), and we were able to speak with many committee members who will be voting on the budget. we even made a few contacts with other lobbyists that were up there, so hopefully we will be able to join forces to take down Big Tobacco.

the fight is still on!
if anyone has any suggestions, ideas, or tools to make this movement move forward, please let me know!

thanks for your help and support!
