A little-known anti-tobacco group that gets money from a federally funded parent organization flew members to Chicago to present an award Tuesday to Mayor Rahm Emanuel for his efforts to pass tougher regulations of menthol cigarettes.
Emanuel appeared at a City Hall news conference with officials from the African American Tobacco Control Leadership Council to receive the group's "Visionary Elected Leader Award" for his proposed ordinance that would outlaw the sale of flavored tobacco products within 500 feet of Chicago schools.
