Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act
Wednesday, July 30, the House of Representatives voted on H.R. 1108, the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act. This bill would provide the federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) with the authority to regulate tobacco products. Among other things, H.R. 1108 would require tobacco companies to provide a detailed
disclosure of ingredients in their products, prohibit tobacco companies from making health claims about their products without adequate scientific evidence and ban all flavored cigarettes except menthol. Previous versions of a bill to provide the FDA with the authority to regulate tobacco products have passed the Senate in years past but this is the first time such a bill will be voted on by the House of Representatives.

H.R. 1108 is on the suspension calendar, meaning that the bill will be debatable for up to 40 minutes and that it must receive two-thirds vote for passage. This bill is the 14th bill listed on the suspension calendar and the House recently finished debate on the 9th bill on the suspension calendar. More details about the House vote and the bill will be sent out tomorrow following the vote.
