GOP unveils slimmer tobacco bill after Senate defeat
House Republicans plan a lean tobacco bill to curb teen smoking and aim for a Clinton signature. The plan would fund anti smoking campaigns, grant FDA authority over cigarettes, restrict minor targeted ads, and curb vending machine access while avoiding higher prices or broad industry protections. Democrats accuse Republicans of courting Big Tobacco and warn the effort risks public health gains. The Senate bill failed 54 44 with McCain joining Republicans in moving on.
