TOBACCO REGULATION THROUGH LITIGATION: THE MASTER SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT February 15, 2010Master Settlement Agreement • February 16th, 2010
The 1998 Master Settlement Agreement resolved the unprecedented litigation in which the states sought to recoup the cigarette-related Medicaid costs. The litigation was settled through a combination of negotiated regulatory requirements and financial payments of about $250 billion over 25 years. Settlement payments received by the states are strongly related to smoking- related medical costs but also are related to political factors. The payments took the form of an excise tax equivalent. The regulatory restrictions imposed by the agreement also raised antitrust concerns. However, there has been no evident shift in industry concentration. The widely cited increase in cigarette advertising and marketing expenses has largely taken the form of price discounts. The tobacco settlement usurped the normal taxation functions of the legislature and imposed regulatory requirements with no legislative mandate or rulemaking process.

Some people believe that the Master Settlement Agreement (MSA) between the states and the cigarette companies requires the companies to run anti-youth-smoking advertising, to fund youth anti-smoking programs, and to do related research re youth smoking. There are also reports that some major cigarette companies are promoting this myth as part of their efforts to convince various organizations to accept tobacco-company funding or to persuade magazines and other media outlets to publish company- sponsored “anti-youth-smoking” ads (even if they have policies against accepting any tobacco industry advertising). In fact, nothing in the MSA requires any of the more than 25 cigarette companies that have signed it to sponsor any anti-youth-smoking ads or youth programs, and the vast majority of these cigarette companies do not. Moreover, as a private contract between the cigarette companies and the states the MSA also does not have any legal authority over any unrelated third parties. So it ca
