Whose Side Are You On?


A series of billboards, including two just blocks away from the capitol building, ask lawmakers to choose sides— Mississippi kids or Big Tobacco.
When we increase tobacco taxes, our kids win and Big Tobacco loses. Why? he more cigarettes cost, the less people smoke—especially kids.
The billboards, which pose the question “Whose side are you on?” while depicting a pack of cigarettes and a group of children, are located on High and West streets, Lakeland Drive, Highway 80 in Pearl, Highway 51 in Madison, Highway 49 in Florence, I-220 near County Line Road, and I-55 S near Byram.
