      "summary": "This report examines the legislative debate over giving FDA the authority to\r\nregulate tobacco products and provides some analysis of S. 2461/H.R. 4433. It\r\nbegins with an overview of the FDA\u2019s 1996 tobacco rule that includes a summary of\r\nthe agency\u2019s arguments for asserting jurisdiction over tobacco products. That is\r\nfollowed by an analysis of the U.S. Supreme Court decision in FDA v. Brown &\r\nWilliamson, which overturned the FDA tobacco rule. The report then reviews the\r\n1997 proposed national tobacco settlement, which would have codified the FDA rule\r\nand given the agency explicit authority to regulate tobacco products as medical\r\ndevices. It includes a discussion of the FDA provisions in the McCain tobacco bill, which was introduced and debated in the 105th Congress in an attempt\r\nto implement the proposed settlement. The final section of the report summarizes the\r\nprovisions in S. 2461/H.R. 4433 and discusses some of the key issues,\r\nincluding preemption and the regulation of reduced-risk products.",
