Report Description:
Smoking is the leading cause of preventable disease and death in the United States. In 2009, Congress passed the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act, authorizing FDA to begin regulating tobacco products in the United States. It granted FDA comprehensive authority over domestic tobacco products and established the Center for Tobacco Products at FDA to oversee the manufacturing, distribution, and marketing of these products. Our work focuses on FDA's efforts to regulate and oversee domestic tobacco manufacturing establishments in the early years of implementing the Tobacco Control Act.
