Henry Waxman: “Rather than get going and getting this accomplished, we saw delays. Industry pushed for delays.”

I think of how Henry Waxman showed America the true face of the tobacco industry, exposing decades of deceit.

No one should be secure while he violates the Constitution and the laws.

I hope this committee will initiate a detailed investigation examining this network of front groups and trade associations, determine who funds them and expose how they coordinate with industry.
