FDA poised to regulate cigarettes and tobacco products nationwide
The FDA is close to controlling manufacturing and marketing of cigarettes and tobacco products. The law bans terms light and low tar, flavors for kids, and requires FDA approval for new products. It creates an FDA tobacco control center funded by industry fees with projected declines in youth and adult smoking and a focus on reducing 400,000 tobacco related deaths yearly.

Ron Paul on Tobacco Control Act Draws Fire in Congress
A conservative critique argues the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act expands FDA authority, curtails First and Fourth Amendment rights, imposes new fees, and could push tobacco production to the black market. The speaker warns of state overreach, economic strain on farmers, and calls for education over regulation.
