ARIZONA SOLUTIONS

Arizona has always been the land where good ideas and innovation are born. People come from all over the world to build a better future here.

Today, that spirit of innovation can help us build a better Arizona while also becoming a model for the next generation of the country.

Our goal is to make Arizona a place where cigarette smoking rates plummet and improve lives for adults, children are protected, and taxpayers win. Arizona Innovates is bringing together public policy leaders, our business community, and everyday Arizonans to make our state the harm-reduction capital of America.

Why

Harm Reduction

Matters

Cigarette smoking is still one of the costliest public-health challenges we face, draining healthcare dollars and costing Arizona taxpayers more than $52 per pack sold. With 128 million packs purchased every year, the impact is staggering.

WHAT WE CAN DO

Arizona Innovates exists to change all that. By advancing harm-reduction strategies and responsible innovation, we can:

  • Provide real pathways for people who are struggling to quit smoking.

  • Stricter rules and stronger penalties for those who market to children.

  • Reduce the burden on taxpayers when it comes to the strain on the healthcare system.

  • Grow our economy by increasing tax revenue and creating new jobs.
