4th Quarter Post #2

Because of the millions of deaths and potentially fatal illnesses caused by smoking, the senate passed a bill giving the FDA the power to limit the regulation of tobacco products, overwhelmingly. Although the act doesn't allow the FDA to ban smoking altogether, because of the strife from smokers and free market agents, but it does give them the power to enforce lower nicotine levels, and more importantly, restrict advertising and promotion to children.This is a huge step in the right direction for public health.
