END Illicit Chinese Tobacco Act

This bill would change federal food and drug law so that the Secretary of Health and Human Services can destroy imported tobacco products that are refused entry because they are adulterated, misbranded, or counterfeit. Current law already allows this for certain drugs and medical devices. The bill adds counterfeit tobacco products to the list of refused imports and applies the existing destruction rules for drugs and devices to tobacco products as well. The changes would take effect on the date the bill becomes law.
