<hr><P><b>Comments:</b></p>I believe this is a needed and much over-due change.

This proposal will limit the tobacco industry from marketing light and low tar as so-called safe or safer cigarettes.

If consumers are able to better understand that there are no safe cigarettes it may increase cessation rates.
