Buck Tobacco congratulates the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association
(PRCA) for its ending its sponsorship relationship with the US Smokeless
Tobacco Company (USSTC), effective at the end of 2009. This is a major
victory for tobacco control advocates in California and across the
country, who have worked hard for many years to raise the issue publicly
and push for policies rejecting tobacco sponsorship of rodeos. We
strongly encourage the PRCA to replace USSTC with a healthy sponsor, not
another tobacco company.
