“Big Tobacco used harmful and misleading marketing practices for decades and undermined public health,” Healey said. “I was proud to work on this case as attorney general and congratulate Attorney General Campbell and her team for delivering this historic result for the people of Massachusetts.”
Looking Forward
The Massachusetts AG’s $600 million deal with tobacco companies not only represents a significant financial victory for the state but also underscores the ongoing commitment to public health. The settlement will provide much-needed funds to support public health initiatives and further accountability for the tobacco industry.
