  43. Key Points About M SA from Advocacy Perspective • T obacco companies can’t use cartoon characters in marketing • Annual tobacco settlement payments do not have an end date • Number of state tobacco control programs still rely on M SA payments for funding • Lock up funding by ballot measure/ constitutional amendment if possible • Securitization of M SA payments is bad, eliminates source of funding for tobacco control programs • 20 th anniversary golden opportunity to remind state officials about promises made at the time of the M SA 45 45
