二手烟是导致癌症和其他疾病死亡的重要可预防原因。为此，NCI通过了一项政策，规定：“为了减少二手烟暴露引起的癌症和其他严重健康危害，NCI组织和/或赞助的所有会议和会议应在无烟的城镇，城市，县或州举行，除非特殊情况证明本政策有例外。为了让工作人员执行这一政策，NCI必须获得有关城市、州、市和县无烟法令的信息。

Secondhand smoke is an important preventable cause of death from cancer and other illnesses. For this reason, NCI adopted a policy stating that, “In order to reduce cancer and other serious health hazards caused by secondhand smoke exposure, all meetings and conferences organized and/or sponsored by NCI shall be held in a town, city, county, or state that is smoke free, unless specific circumstances justify an exception from this policy.” To allow staff to implement this policy, NCI must have access to information on smokefree ordinances in cities, states, municipalities, and counties.
