Midterm Reports

The SLATI (State Legislated Actions on Tobacco Issues) Report remains the only up-to-date guide to all tobacco control laws, featuring in-depth details on the constantly changing landscape of tobacco control policy.

Besides SLATI we also create an annual Midterm Report that provides an overview of what has happened legislatively on tobacco control during the first part of a given year. It also reviews studies and research relevant to tobacco control policy.

See below for past editions of our SLATI Midterm Updates, which we hope you find useful.
