The main purpose of this legislation is to clarify the authority of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) over certain tobacco products, specifically traditional and premium cigars. It aims to protect jobs and small businesses that are involved in the sale, manufacturing, and distribution of these types of cigars. Key provisions of the legislation include a clear definition of what constitutes a traditional large and premium cigar. The law states that these cigars are exempt from many of the regulations that the FDA typically applies to tobacco products.
