SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE; REFERENCE.

    (a) Short Title.--This Act may be cited as the ``Tobacco Health and 
Safety Act''.
    (b) Reference.--Whenever in this Act an amendment or repeal is 
expressed in terms of an amendment to, or repeal of, a section or other 
provision, the reference shall be considered to be made to a section or 
other provision of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds that--
            (1) cigarette smoking and the use of smokeless tobacco 
        products continue to represent a major health hazard to the 
        American public,
            (2) cigarette smoking continues to be the single most 
        preventable cause of death and disability in the United States,
            (3) tobacco products contain hazardous tobacco additives, 
        gases, and other chemical constituents dangerous to health,
            (4) the use of tobacco products cost the United States in 
        excess of $60,000,000,000 in lost productivity and health care 
        costs,
            (5) tobacco products contain nicotine, a poisonous 
        addictive drug,
            (6) the tobacco industry has maintained that smoking is an 
        adult practice and that smoking and the use of smokeless 
        tobacco is not a practice to be carried out by young people,
            (7) 60 percent of all new smokers are under the age of 14 
        years of age,
            (8) despite the known adverse health effects associated 
        with tobacco, it remains one of the least regulated consumer 
        products,
            (9) in one year alone, 1990, the tobacco industry spent 
        more than $4,000,000,000 to promote and sell its products,
            (10) the Congress of the United States has a major policy-
        setting role in ensuring that the use of tobacco products is 
        discouraged to the maximum extent possible, and
            (11) creation of a separate chapter for tobacco under the 
        Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act assures the most effective 
        means of regulating the product without the product being 
        banned.

SEC. 3. DEFINITIONS.

    Section 201 (21 U.S.C. 321) is amended by adding at the end thereof

tobacco product, either by itself or in conjunction with any other 
additive, is unsafe and presents unnecessary increased risks to health, 
the Secretary may require that such levels of the tobacco additive in 
the tobacco product be reduced or that it be prohibited from use. The 
Secretary may make such a determination only with the advice of experts 
qualified by scientific training and experience to evaluate the safety 
of tobacco additives.
