Durbin Issues Statement Following FDA, White House Delay In Implementation Of Menthol Cigarette Rule

Statement

Date: Dec. 6, 2023
Location: Washington D.C.

"With each additional day that menthol cigarettes remain on the market, Big Tobacco profits off the addiction and suffering in America. For too long, communities of color have been aggressively targeted by Big Tobacco's lies and deadly products.

Lives are at stake. I urge the Biden Administration, in keeping with its stated commitment to end cancer as we know it, to revisit this unacceptable delay and to do what is right for the health of Americans."
