* Letter grade of A through F has been assigned to each of four tobacco control policies considered by the American Lung Association (13).Grade “A” indicates excellent tobacco control policies and “F” indicates inadequate policies.We divided these select states to two categories: (1) those with very limited tobacco control, and (2) those with some effective policies. In each group, states are ordered alphabetically.
