Description

In 2009, the Childrenäó»s Health Insur. Program Reauthorization Act (CHIPRA) increased and equalized federal excise tax rates for cigarettes, roll-your-own tobacco, and small cigars. Though CHIPRA also increased federal excise tax rates for pipe tobacco and large cigars, it raised the pipe tobacco tax to a rate significantly below the equalized rate for the other products, and its large cigar excise tax can be significantly lower, depending on price. This report: (1) reviews the market shifts in smoking tobacco products since CHIPRA; (2) examines the impact of the market shifts on fed. revenue and Treasuryäó»s actions to respond; and (3) describes differences in FDAäó»s regulation of various smoking tobacco products. Illus. This is a print on demand report.
