A group calling themselves the Tobacco-Free Kids Action Fund (and the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids) has launched some "issue ads" against Tommy Robertson ostensibly about taxing groceries. The ad doesn't even mention tobacco, which by the way would have actually involved a TAX INCREASE that was proposed. It also doesn't mention that the grocery tax predated Robertson.
Who are these folks that have Mississippi's grocery interests at heart, you ask?
