Can the Trump Administration resurrect the FDA’s 2017 Comprehensive Plan in 2025?
Time: 9:35 am - 9:50 am
FDA’s comprehensive plan for the regulation of tobacco and nicotine was announced in 2017 during the first Trump Administration. Events in 2018 overtook efforts to implement that plan. Former Commissioner Gottlieb’s resignation in 2019 was the final nail in the coffin of the 2017 plan. Do the critical components of the 2017 plan stand the test of time? If so, can the plan be resurrected by the Trump Administration in 2025? To what degree would such efforts be undermined by the behavior of the current Administration and the ongoing dispute in U.S. tobacco control and public health circles regarding the application of harm reduction principles to regulatory policy? Retired CTP Center Director Mitch Zeller will attempt to address these simple issues in 15 minutes. Let’s see if he can pull it off.
