Tobacco Company Sues Washington Over Ban On Cigarette Promotions To Adult Smokers
R.J. Reynolds
Tobacco Company today filed suit in U.S. District Court for the Western
District of Washington (Tacoma Division) to overturn a recently enacted
state law prohibiting tobacco companies from sampling products to adult
smokers in bars, nightclubs and other adult-only venues.
In its court filing, R.J. Reynolds contends the new law, approved by
Gov. Gregoire on March 9, violates the First Amendment and is preempted by
the Federal Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act, the federal law that
bars states from regulating cigarette advertising and promotion.
"The new law says that its purpose is to protect minors, but Washington
law already prohibits cigarette sampling where minors may be present," says
Darryl R. Marsch, senior counsel for R.J. Reynolds. "The new law is an
unconstitutional attempt to prevent us from using an accepted form of
product promotion with adult smokers."
Marsch notes the Supreme Court has held that product sampling is a form
of communication protected by the First Amendment, and federal courts have
ruled that cigarette sampling bans are preempted by federal law.
R.J. Reynolds says in its filing that forms of cigarette advertising
and promotion are sharply restricted by the Master Settlement Agreement
(MSA). However, the MSA does not bar sampling in adult-only venues.
"Sampling in adult-only facilities is an effective and responsible way
for us to communicate with adult smokers," Marsch says.
The new law is due to take effect on June 7. R.J. Reynolds will ask the
federal court for a hearing on its lawsuit before that date.
R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, an indirect subsidiary of Reynolds
American Inc. (NYSE: RAI), is the second-largest tobacco company in the
United States, manufacturing about one of every three cigarettes sold in
the country. The company's brands include five of the 10 best-selling U.S.
cigarette brands: Camel, Kool, Winston, Salem and Doral.
