ASH US just released the 4th Edition, 2013, U.S. Tobacco Industry Interference Index which shows an increase in tobacco company interference in U.S. public health policy making.

See the Report at: https://ash.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/2023-U.S.-Tobacco-Industry-Interference-Index-Report.pdf

Gray M. US Tobacco Industry Interference Index. 2013. This Index of 30 pages reviews 30 indicators and makes 7 recommendations.

Comment: It gives the US a poor rating illustrating the many ways US policymakers have not acted against tobacco industry interference.
