According to the Washington Observer on November 19th, the Biden administration in the United States is facing opposition from both parties as it is about to make a decision on the proposed menthol ban, which opposition believes will have a negative impact on the economy and a significant impact on communities of color.
Following the FDA's first proposal in the spring of 2021, it is expected that a decision on whether to implement a ban on menthol cigarettes and flavored cigars will be announced as early as this week.
Legislators and rights groups have criticized the proposal, believing that it will lead to an increase in illegal sales and inconsistent enforcement.
