Cigarette Labeling Rule Faces Court Tests
Washington (RP) Congress and federal court suits loom as obstacles to a new FTC rule requiring tobacco firms to label cigarettes as health hazards. Dixon said industry may seek court review, Jordan warned growers and manufacturers will pursue immediate court action, and Clay questioned FTC authority. If sued, litigation could last four years before implementation. The FTC mandates a Jan 1 warning on products and July 1 ad label deadline, with possible delay if industry proves advertising changes negating need. Stock markets reacted with tobacco stock dips despite overall NYSE gains.
