With the weather warming more every year, experts say tick season can happen earlier and earlier.

HARRISBURG, Pa. — More than 400 students from across the Commonwealth gathered at the State Capitol for the American Lung Association’s 18th annual “Day at the Capitol" on Tuesday.

“My mom, Amy Ripley-Snyder, died last January because of stage four lung cancer,” said Amyrah Moumouni-Snyder, a student at Dauphin County Technical School. “She was not aware of how harmful it was not only to herself but to her kids.” “It’s really a protection for the workers so that they’re not breathing in that toxic air all day,” said Tony Delonti, manager of health promotions with the American Lung Association. “If you’re inside and the air you’re breathing has those toxins we’re talking about, they’re going to affect the lungs.”

“I have asthma, so it's very important to me that we have clean areas where nobody is smoking or vaping,” said Paige Miller, a student at Halifax High School.
