What is the Federal Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act (FCLAA)?
The FCLAA, Public Law 89–92, is a statute that was designed to “establish a comprehensive federal program to deal with cigarette labeling and advertising with respect to any relationship between smoking and health.” In 1984, this Act was amended by PL 98–474, the Comprehensive Smoking Education Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1335a(a) to in part provide the Department of Health and Human Services with a list of the ingredients added to tobacco in the manufacture of cigarettes.
