Biden’s Menthol Ban Is Bad Policy
The proposed ban won’t improve health outcomes, but will bring more people under government coercion.
After more than a decade of reports, conferences, petitions, proposals and protests, President Joe Biden’s Food & Drug Administration (FDA) just announced [1] its intention to pursue something that many tobacco-control advocates have urged for years: a ban on menthol cigarettes [2]. Since roughly a third [3] of all cigarettes purchased by America’s more than 35 million smokers have menthol as their characterizing flavor and most of the rest contain some of the minty substance, a total ban would rank among America’s most sweeping product bans since national alcohol prohibition began in 1920. As politics, the approach supported by some civil-rights and nearly all prominent tobacco-control groups might pay some dividends. Judged as health policy, however, it’s a weak gruel at best.
