Feb 27 - The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday declined to hear a challenge to Los Angeles County's ban on sales of flavored tobacco products brought by R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, which had argued that only the federal government - not state or local governments - has the legal authority to regulate tobacco products. The Supreme Court in December allowed a California statewide ban on flavored tobacco products, also challenged by R.J. Reynolds, to go into effect. California became the second state to ban all flavored tobacco product sales, after Massachusetts in 2019. Flavored tobacco products, especially e-cigarettes, have come under scrutiny in recent years as critics have said they appeal to youth. Circuit Court of Appeals last year upheld the Los Angeles ban on a 2-1 vote.
Major cigarette companies will soon be required to post signs at retail locations warning of the health effects of smoking, the Justice Department announced. It resulted in a ruling that the cigarette companies were defrauding consumers about the health dangers associated with cigarette smoking. As part of earlier court orders, similar health warning statements in 2017 began appearing in newspaper and TV ads, on cigarette packages and on the companies' websites. The retail signs were the subject of several appeals before an agreement on them was reached this past May, the Justice Department said. The order will apply to about 200,000 U.S. retail locations that have merchandising agreements with the cigarette companies, according to the department.
