Health and Safety Regulations

| Date Of Involvement: |
05/22/2008 |
| Description: |
| In this amicus brief, filed on behalf of Public Citizen, Inc., American college of Preventive Medicine, American Public Health Association, Association of Maternal and child Health Programs, National Association of Local Boards f Health, and the Oncology Nursing Society, we argued in support of the district court's finding that tobacco companies' use of descriptors such as "light" and "low-tar" was fraudulent and argued that the court's order that defendants cease using such descriptors did not conflict with Federal Trade Commission policy. |
Because Public Citizen does not accept funds from corporations, professional associations or government agencies,
we can remain independent and follow the truth wherever it may lead. But that means we
depend on the generosity of concerned citizens like you for the resources to fight on
behalf of the public interest. If you would like to help us in our fight,
