SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    (a) General Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The Food and Drug Administration and other public 
        health authorities view the use of tobacco products by the 
        nation's children as a ``pediatric disease'' of epic and 
        worsening proportions that results in new generations of 
        tobacco-dependent children and adults.
            (2) There is a consensus within the scientific and medical 
        communities that tobacco products are inherently dangerous and 
        cause cancer, heart disease, and other serious adverse health 
        effects.
            (3) The Food and Drug Administration and other health 
        authorities have concluded that virtually all new users of 
        tobacco products are under the age of 18. Virtually all 
        Federal, State, and local officials and entities believe that 
        tobacco advertising and marketing contribute significantly to 
        the use of nicotine-containing tobacco products by adolescents 
        and as such, sweeping new restriction on the sale, promotion, 
        and distribution of such products are needed.
            (4) Federal, State, and local governments lack many of the 
        legal means and resources needed to address the societal 
        problems caused by the use of tobacco products.
            (5) Public health authorities believe that the societal 
        benefits of enacting tobacco settlement legislation in human 
        and economic terms would be vast. The Food and Drug 
        Administration found that reducing underage tobacco use 50 
        percent ``would prevent well over 60,000 early deaths''. The 
        Food and Drug Administration has estimated that the monetary 
        value of the regulations promulgated as a result of this Act 
        will be worth up to $43,000,000,000 per year in reduced medical 
        costs, improved productivity, and the benefit of avoiding the 
        premature death of loved ones.
            (6) The unique position occupied by tobacco in the history 
        and economy of the United States, the magnitude of the actual 
        and potential tobacco-related litigation, the need to avoid the 
        cost, expense, uncertainty, and inconsistency associated with 
        such protracted litigation, the need to limit the sale, 
        distribution, marketing, and advertising of tobacco products to 
        persons of legal age, and the need to educate the public 
        (especially young people) of the health effects of using 
        tobacco products all dictate that it would be in the public 
        interest to enact legislation to facilitate a resolution of 
        such matters.
    (b) Findings Related to Interstate Commerce and the Judicial 
System.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The sale, distribution, marketing, advertising, and use 
        of tobacco products are activities substantially affecting 
        interstate commerce. Such products are sold, marketed, 
        advertised, and distributed in interstate commerce on a 
        nationwide basis and have a substantial effect on the economy 
        of the United States.
            (2) The sale, distribution, marketing, advertising, and use 
        of tobacco products are activities that substantially affect 
        interstate commerce by virtue of the health care and other 
        costs that Federal and State governmental authorities have 
        incurred because of the usage of tobacco products.
            (3) Various civil actions brought by State attorneys 
        general, cities, counties, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, 
        third-party payors, and other private classes and individuals 
        to recover damages relating to tobacco-related diseases, 
        conditions and products are pending throughout the United 
        States, of these actions are slow-moving, expensive, and 
        burdensome not only for the litigants but also for Federal and 
        State judicial systems.

SEC. 3. PURPOSES.

    It is the purpose of this Act to--
            (1) reiterate and enhance the authority of the Food and 
        Drug Administration to regulate tobacco products and provide 
        for tobacco industry funding of the oversight activities of the 
        Administration;
            (2) ban all outdoor tobacco advertising and ban all cartoon 
        characters and human figures used in connection with tobacco 
        advertising;
            (3) provide for the funding by the tobacco industry of an 
        aggressive Federal enforcement program relating to tobacco 
        advertising and distribution, including a State-administered 
        retail licensing system to prevent minors from obtaining 
        tobacco products;
            (4) subject the tobacco industry to severe financial 
        penalties in the event that underage tobacco usage does not 
        decline radically over the next 10 years;
            (5) provide for the establishment of national standards to 
        control the manufacturing of tobacco products and the 
        ingredients used in such products;
            (6) provide certain regulatory powers to the Food and Drug 
        Administration to encourage the development and marketing by 
        the tobacco industry of ``less hazardous tobacco products'', 
        including the power to regulate the level of nicotine in such 
products;
            (7) require the manufacturers of tobacco products to 
        disclose all present and future non-public internal laboratory 
        research regarding tobacco products;
            (8) establish a minimum Federal standard to limit smoking 
        in public places;
            (9) provide for the establishment of a National Tobacco 
        Settlement Trust Fund to be funded by the tobacco industry and 
        used in accordance with this Act;
            (10) provide for the establishment of a national education-
        oriented counter advertising and tobacco control campaign to be 
        funded through the National Tobacco Settlement Trust Fund;
            (11) provide annual payments to States to fund health 
        benefits programs and to create a tobacco products liability 
        judgments and settlements fund to be funded through the 
        National Tobacco Settlement Trust Fund; and
            (12) provide for the establishment of a national program of 
        smoking cessation to be funded through the National Tobacco 
        Settlement Trust Fund.

    (b) Revocation and Suspensions.--
            (1) Notice.--Upon a finding that a tobacco licensee has 
        been determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have 
        violated a provision of State law under this subtitle during 
        the license term, the State shall notify the licensee in 
        writing, served personally or by registered mail at the 
        principal place of business of the licensee, that any 
        subsequent violation of such law at the same place of business 
        may result in an administrative action to suspend the license 
        for a period determined by the State in accordance with 
        subsection (a)(2)(B).
            (2) Suspension.--Upon finding that a further violation by 
        the tobacco licensee has occurred involving the same place of 
        business for which the license was issued and the licensee has 
        been provided notice under paragraph (1), the State may 
        initiate an administrative action to suspend the license for a 
        period to be determined in accordance with subsection 
        (a)(2)(B). If an administrative action to suspend a license is 
        initiated, the State shall immediately notify the licensee, in 
        writing at the principal place of business of the licensee, of 
        the initiation of the action and the reasons therefore and 
        permit the licensee an opportunity, at least 30 days after 
        written notice is served personally or by registered mail upon

            (3) Revocation.--The State may initiate an administrative 
        action to revoke a tobacco license that previously has been 
        suspended under paragraph (2) if, during the 2-year period

        subtitle is committed after the suspension by the licensee 
        involving the same place of business for which the license was 
        issued. If an administrative action to revoke a license is 
        initiated, the State shall immediately notify the licensee, in 
        writing at the principal place of business of the licensee, of 
        the initiation of the action and the reasons therefore and 
        permit the licensee an opportunity, at least 30 days after 
        written notice is served personally or by registered mail upon 
        the licensee, to show why revocation of the license would be 
        unwarranted or unjust.
    (c) Judicial Review.--A tobacco licensee may seek judicial review 
of an action of the State suspending, revoking, denying, or refusing to 
renew a license under this section by filing a complaint in a court of

        against any manufacturer of a tobacco product of up to $25,000 
        per day of violation whenever, on the basis of any available 
        information, the Secretary finds that such manufacturer has 
        violated or is violating any requirement of this subtitle.
            (2) Limitation.--The authority of the Secretary under this 
        subsection shall be limited to matters where the total penalty 
        sought does not exceed $200,000 and the first alleged date of 
        violation occurred not more than 12 months prior to the 
        initiation of the administrative action, except where the 
        Secretary and the Attorney General jointly determine that a 
        matter involving a larger penalty amount or longer period of 
        violation is appropriate for action.
            (3) Judicial review.--Any determination by the 
        Administrator and the Attorney General under paragraph (2) 
        shall not be subject to judicial review.
    (b) Procedure.--
            (1) In general.--A civil penalty under subsection (a) shall 
        be assessed by the Secretary by an order made after an 
        opportunity for a hearing on the record in accordance with 
        sections 554 and 556 of title 5 of the United States Code. The 
        Secretary shall issue reasonable rules for discovery and other 
        procedures for hearings under this paragraph. Before issuing 
        such an order, the Secretary shall give written notice to the 
        manufacturer against whom the assessment is being made of the 
        Secretary's proposal to issue such an order and provide such 
        manufacturer with an opportunity to request such a hearing on 
        the order, within 30 days of the date the notice is received by 
        such manufacturer.
            (2) Modifications.--The Secretary may compromise, modify, 
        or remit, with or without conditions, any penalty which may be

            (1) Implementation.--The Secretary may provide for the 
        implementation, after consultation with the Attorney General 
        and the States, of a field citation program through regulations

        which field citations, assessing civil penalties not to exceed 
        $5,000 per day of violation, may be issued by officers or

            (2) Hearing.--Any manufacturer to which a field citation is 
        assessed may, within a reasonable time as prescribed by the 
        Secretary through regulation, elect to pay the penalty 
        assessment or to request a hearing on the field citation. If a 
        request for a hearing is not made within the time specified in 
        the regulation, the penalty assessment in the field citation 
        shall be final. Such hearing shall not be subject to section 
        554 or 556 of title 5 of the United States Code, but shall 
        provide a reasonable opportunity to be heard and to present 
        evidence.
            (3) No defense.--Payment of a civil penalty required by a 
        field citation under this paragraph shall not be a defense to 
        further enforcement by the United States or a State to correct 
        a violation, or to assess the statutory maximum penalty 
        pursuant to other authorities in the subtitle, if the violation 
        continues.
    (d) Judicial Review.--
            (1) Right.--Any manufacturer against whom a civil penalty

        Columbia or for the district in which the violation is alleged 
        to have occurred or in which the principal place of business of 
        the manufacturer is located, by filing in such court within 30 
        days following the date the penalty order becomes final under 
        subsection paragraph (b), the assessment becomes final under 
        subsection (c), or a final decision following a hearing under 
        subsection (c) is rendered, and by simultaneously sending a 
        copy of the filing by certified mail to the Secretary and the 
        Attorney General.
            (2) Filing.--Within 30 days after a filing under paragraph 
        (1), the Secretary shall file in the court involved a certified 
        copy, or certified index, as appropriate, of the record on 
        which the penalty order or assessment was issued.
            (3) Action by court.--A court shall not set aside or remand 
        a penalty order or assessment under this section unless there 
        is not substantial evidence in the record, taken as a whole, to 
        support the finding of a violation or unless the order or 
        penalty assessment constitutes an abuse of discretion.
            (4) Limitation.--A penalty order or assessment under this 
        section shall not be subject to review by any court except as 
        provided in this subsection. In any such proceedings, the 
        United States may seek to recover civil penalties ordered or 
        assessed under this section.

            (1) In general.--If any manufacturer fails to pay an 
        assessment of a civil penalty or fails to comply with an 
        penalty order under this section--
                    (A) after the order or assessment has become final; 
                or
                    (B) after a court, in an action brought under 
                subsection (d), has entered a final judgment in favor 
                of the Secretary;
        the Secretary shall request the Attorney General to bring a 
        civil action in an appropriate district court to enforce the 
        order or to recover the amount ordered or assessed (plus 
        interest at rates established pursuant to section 6621(a)(2) of 
        the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 from the date of the final 
        order or decision or the date of the final judgment, as the 
        case may be). In such an action, the validity, amount, and 
        appropriateness of such order or assessment shall not be 
        subject to review.
            (2) Enforcement expenses.--Any manufacturer who fails to 
        pay on a timely basis a civil penalty ordered or assessed under 
        this section shall be required to pay, in addition to such 
        penalty and interest, the United States enforcement expenses, 
        including attorneys fees and costs incurred by the United 
        States for collection proceedings and a quarterly nonpayment 
        penalty for each quarter during which such failure to pay 
        persists. Such nonpayment penalty shall be 10 percent of the 
        aggregate amount of such manufacturer's outstanding penalties 
        and nonpayment penalties accrued as of the beginning of such 
        quarter.
    (f) Scarlet Letter Advertising.--

              TITLE II--REDUCTION IN UNDERAGE TOBACCO USE

SEC. 201. PURPOSE.

    It is the purpose of this title to encourage the achievement of 
dramatic and immediate reductions in the number of underage consumers 
of tobacco products through the imposition of substantial financial 
surcharges on manufacturers if certain underage tobacco-use reduction 
targets are not met.

SEC. 202. DETERMINATION OF UNDERAGE USE BASE PERCENTAGES.

    (a) Cigarettes.--For purposes of this section, the underage use 
base percentage for cigarettes shall be a percentage determined by the 
Secretary, weighted by the relative population of the age groups 
involved as determined using data compiled in 1995 by the Bureau of the 
Census, based on--
            (1) the average of the percentages of 12th graders 
        (individuals who are 16 or 17 years of age) who used cigarette 
        products on a daily basis for each of the calendar years 1986 
        through 1996;
            (2) the average of the percentages of 10th graders 
        (individuals who are 14 or 15 years of age) who used cigarette 
        products on a daily basis for each of the calendar years 1991 
        through 1996; and
            (3) the average of the percentages of 8th graders 
        (individuals who are 13 years of age) who used cigarette 
        products on a daily basis for each of the calendar years 1991 
        through 1996.
    (b) Smokeless Tobacco.--For purposes of this section, the underage 
use base percentage for smokeless tobacco products shall be a 
percentage determined by the Secretary, weighted by the relative 
population of the age groups involved as determined using data compiled 
in 1995 by the Bureau of the Census, based on--
            (1) the average of the percentages of 12th graders 
        (individuals who are 16 or 17 years of age) who used smokeless 
        tobacco products on a daily basis in 1996;
            (2) the average of the percentages of 10th graders 
        (individuals who are 14 or 15 years of age) who used smokeless 
        tobacco products on a daily basis in 1996; and
            (3) the average of the percentages of 8th graders 
        (individuals who are 13 years of age) who used smokeless 
        tobacco products on a daily basis in 1996.
    (c) Use of Certain Data or Methodology.--For purposes of 
determining the percentages under paragraphs (1) through (3) of 
subsections (a) and (b), the Secretary shall use the data contained in 
the National High School Drug Use Survey entitled Monitoring the Future 
by the University of Michigan or such other comparable index, as 
determined appropriate by the Secretary after notice and an opportunity 
for a hearing, that utilizes methodology identical to that used by the 
University of Michigan in such survey.

    (a) Annual Determination.--Not later than the expiration of the 5-
year period beginning on the date of enactment of this Act, and 
annually thereafter, the Secretary shall determine the average annual 
incidence of the daily use of tobacco products by individuals who are 
under 18 years of age.
    (b) Cigarettes.--With respect to cigarette products, a 
determination under subsection (a) for a year shall be based on the 
percentage, as weighted by the relative population of the age groups 
involved as determined using data compiled in 1995 by the Bureau of the 
Census, of--
            (1) 12th graders (individuals who are 16 or 17 years of 
        age) who used cigarette products on a daily basis during the 
        year involved;
            (2) 10th graders (individuals who are 14 or 15 years of 
        age) who used cigarette products on a daily basis during the 
        year involved; and
            (3) 8th graders (individuals who are 13 years of age) who 
        used cigarette products on a daily basis during the year 
        involved.
    (c) Smokeless Tobacco.--With respect to smokeless tobacco products, 
a determination under subsection (a) for a year shall be based on the 
percentage, as weighted by the relative population of the age groups 
involved as determined using data compiled in 1995 by the Bureau of the 
Census, of--
            (1) 12th graders (individuals who are 16 or 17 years of 
        age) who used smokeless tobacco products on a daily basis 
        during the year involved;
            (2) 10th graders (individuals who are 14 or 15 years of 
        age) who used smokeless tobacco products on a daily basis 
        during the year involved; and
            (3) 8th graders (individuals who are 13 years of age) who 
        used cigarette smokeless tobacco on a daily basis during the 
        year involved.
    (d) Use of Certain Data or Methodology.--
            (1) In general.--For purposes of determining the 
        percentages under paragraphs (1) through (3) of subsections (b) 
        and (c), the Secretary shall use the data contained in the 
        National High School Drug Use Survey entitled Monitoring the 
        Future by the University of Michigan (if such survey is still 
        being undertaken) or such other comparable index, as determined 
        appropriate by the Secretary after notice and an opportunity 
        for a hearing, that utilizes methodology identical to that used 
        by the University of Michigan in such survey.
            (2) Alteration of methodology.--If the Secretary determines 
        that the methodology used by the University of Michigan in the 
        survey referred to in paragraph (1) has been altered in a 
        material manner from the methodology used during the period 
        from 1986 to 1996 (including by altering States or regions on 
        which the survey is based), the Secretary, after notice and an 
        opportunity for a hearing, shall use percentages based on an 
        index developed by the Secretary that utilizes methodology 
        identical to that used by the University of Michigan in such 
        survey.

SEC. 204. REQUIRED REDUCTION IN UNDERAGE TOBACCO USE.

    (a) In General.--For purposes of assessing surcharges under section 
205, the Secretary shall determine whether the required percentage 
reduction in the underage use of tobacco products for a year (based on 
the tables contained in subsection (b)) has been achieved for the year 
involved. Such determination shall be based on--
            (1) with respect to cigarette products, the average annual 
        incidence of the daily use of tobacco products by individuals 
        who are under 18 years of age for the year involved (as 
        determined under section 203(b)) as compared to the underage 
        use base percentage for cigarette products (as determined under 
        section 202(a)); and
            (2) with respect to smokeless tobacco products, the average 
        annual incidence of the daily use of smokeless tobacco products 
        by individuals who are under 18 years of age for the year 
involved (as determined under section 203(c)) as compared to the 
underage use base percentage for smokeless tobacco products (as 
determined under section 202(b)).
    (b) Percentage Reduction in Underage Use of Tobacco Products.--For 
purposes of subsection (a), the required percentage reduction in the 
underage use of tobacco products with respect to each tobacco product

                    (B) the number of applicable surcharge percentage 
                points as determined under subsection (c).
            (2) Adjustments.--The amount applicable under paragraph (1) 
        shall be annually adjusted by the Secretary based on--
                    (A) with respect to subparagraph (A) of such 
                paragraph--
                            (i) the proportional percentage increase or 
                        decrease, as compared to calendar year 1995, in 
                        the population of individuals residing in the 
                        United States who are at least 13 years of age 
                        but less than 18 years of age;
                            (ii) the proportional percentage increase 
                        or decrease, as compared to calendar year 1996, 
                        in the average profit per unit (measured in 
                        cents and weighted by annual sales) earned by 
                        tobacco manufacturers for the tobacco product 
                        involved (as determined by the Secretary 
                        through a contract with a nationally recognized 
                        accounting firm having no connection to tobacco 
                        manufacturers); and
                    (B) any methodology utilized to avoid the double 
                counting of underage individuals whose tobacco use has 
                previously resulted in the imposition of a surcharge, 
                limited to the extent that there were not other 
                underage users of tobacco in such previous years for 
                whom a surcharge was not paid because of the limitation 
                contained in section 206.
            (3) Profit per unit.--For purposes of paragraph (2)(A)(ii), 
        the average profit per unit for calendar 1996 shall be 
        determined using the operating profit reported by manufacturers 
        to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
    (c) Determination of Applicable Surcharge Percentage Points.--
            (1) In general.--Except as provided in paragraph (2), with 
        respect to a calendar year, the applicable surcharge percentage 
        points shall be equal to the percentage point difference 
        between--
                    (A) the required percentage reduction in the 
                underage use of the tobacco product involved for the 
                year (based on the tables in section 204(b)); and
                    (B) the number of percentage points by which the 
                average annual incidence of the daily use of the 
                tobacco products involved by individuals who are under 
                18 years of age for the year (as determined under 
                section 203) is less than the underage use base 
                percentage for such products (as determined under 
                section 202).
            (2) Adjustment.--If for any calendar year the Secretary 
        determines that the average annual incidence of the daily use 
        of the tobacco products involved by individuals who are under 
        18 years of age (as determined under section 203) is greater 
        than the underage use base percentage for such products (as 
        determined under section 202), the applicable surcharge 
        percentage point shall be equal to--
                    (A) the percentage point amount determined under 
                paragraph (1)(A); and
                    (B) the number of percentage points by which the 
                average annual incidence of the daily use of the 
                tobacco products involved by individuals who are under 
                18 years of age (as determined under section 203) is 
                greater than the underage use base percentage for such 
products (as determined under section 202).
            (3) Type of product.--Separate determinations shall be made 
        under this section for cigarette products and smokeless tobacco 
        products.
    (d) Limitation.--The total amount of surcharges imposed with 
respect to each type of tobacco product (cigarette products or 
smokeless tobacco products) under this section shall not exceed 
$2,000,000,000 (adjusted each year by the Secretary to account for 
inflation) for any calendar year.
    (e) Joint and Several Obligation.--Any surcharge imposed under this 
section with respect to a tobacco product (cigarette products or 
smokeless tobacco products) shall be the joint and several obligation 
of all manufacturers of such product as allocated by the market share 
of each such manufacturer with respect to such product. The market 
share of each manufacturer for each such product shall be based on the 
actual Federal excise tax payments made by such manufacturers for each 
such product under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
    (f) Assessment.--Not later than May 1 of each year in which a 
surcharge will be imposed under this section, the Secretary shall 
assess to each manufacturer the amount for which such manufacturer is 
obligated. Not later than July 1 of any year in which a manufacturer 
receives an assessment under this section, the manufacturer shall pay 
such assessment in full or be subject to such interest on such amount 
as the Secretary may by regulation prescribe.
    (g) Use of Amounts.--Amounts received under this section shall be 
used as provided for in section 517.
    (h) Prohibition.--No stay or other injunctive relief may be granted 
by the Secretary or any court that has the effect of enjoining the 
imposition and collection of the surcharges to be applied under this 
section.

be on the manufacturer to prove, by a preponderance of the evidence, 
that the manufacturer should be granted the abatement.

abatement under this section shall be based on a determination as to 
whether--
            (1) the manufacturer has acted in good faith and in full 
        compliance with this Act (and any amendment made by this Act) 
        and any regulations or State or local laws promulgated in 
        furtherance of this Act;
            (2) the manufacturer has pursued all reasonably available 
        measures to attain the reductions;
            (3) there is any evidence of any direct or indirect action 
        by the manufacturer to undermine the achievement of the

the procedures described in sections 701 through 706 of title 5, United 
States Code.
    (g) Prohibition.--A manufacturer may not file a petition under
