Tobacco roadblocks

If e-cigarettes are found to be tobacco products, here are some ways the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act could pose some issues for Smoking Everywhere:

• By October, tobacco companies will no longer be able to make candy- or fruit-flavored cigarettes. Smoking Everywhere has different flavors of cartridges such as vanilla and strawberry.

• Tobacco manufacturers may no longer sponsor sporting, athletic and entertainment events using tobacco product brand names and logos. This year Smoking Everywhere sponsored several large entertainment events, including the 40th annual NAACP Image Awards, the Grammy Awards and the Oscars.

• A new Center for Tobacco Products will oversee the science-based regulation of tobacco products, which would ultimately put the control of tobacco products in the FDA's hands.
