And a backer of the legislation said von Eschenbach misunderstood its thrust: "The bill gives the FDA the authority to adjust nicotine levels — if doing so is demonstrated to save lives," said Matthew Myers, president of the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids. "The status quo is the tobacco industry decides how much nicotine and other toxic substances are in tobacco products."

Mostly about cigarettes, but it looks like the effect would regulate all tobacco products.
