Is NY state banning clove cigarettes? Which legislator introduced the legislation and why?

I went into my local smoke shop and the owner told me that I needed to get a hold of my ploitical connections because the state was planning on banning the importation of clove cigarettes from the Djarum Corp. out of indonesia. They were told flavored cigarettes were targeting children. Clove cigarettes have no tobacco and no carcinogens are twice as expensive as tobacco. I just can't figure out who would introduce this legislation. I smoke five cloves per day to curb nausea caused by multiple medications. I know in large quantities the can cause COPD like regular cigarettes, I have never seen an advertisement for the cigaretters I smoke. I need this basic information to proceed to the legislature and to Elliot Spitzer, future governor or at least that's what it looks like of New York|||Here is the only information I could find:

Councilman: Raise smoking age to 21


By Chuck Bennett





Young New Yorkers would have to wait until they are 21 to legally buy their first pack of cigarettes if a controversial City Council bill is signed into law.








All tobacco-related goods, including cigars, chewing tobacco, rolling papers and pipes, would be off-limits to people under 21.





The bill's sponsor, Joel Rivera of the Bronx, the Democratic majority leader and chairman of the council health committee, said raising the age would cut down on teen smoking and "improve the general health of all New Yorkers."








Rivera is expected to announce another piece of legislation today, which is World No Tobacco Day. His bill would ban all flavored cigarettes -- except menthol and clove -- in the five boroughs.|||http://apps.facebook.com/causes/347758/8781832?m=2bb70939

You might be fed erroneous info by somebody who wants to make a profit from selling them .They are appealing to kids who mistakenly think they are ok .

I bet New Yorkers are very happy to have the government take care of them and make their personal decisions for them.

How can John Boehner, Speaker of the House, say passing debt ceiling legislation is President Obama's problem?

If debt ceiling legislation doesn't get passed it will be John Boehner the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, Harry Reid Senate Majority Leader, and the other leaders of the legislative branch’s fault not President Obama’s.|||He is admitting that he can not get yes votes of all the house Republicans on any bill that will pass in the senate, but Obama may be able to get the votes of the democrats and enough republicans to pass a bill in the house that will also pass in the senate. There are a lot of house republican that depend on the support the people that owns the bonds that will not be paid and will not be happy if the government default .|||There's no law saying there has to be a debt ceiling or that a deal must be passed. Obama and the democrats can either give into republican demands or there won't be a debt ceiling increase. Simple as that. It's up to Obama to get his side to get some common sense and realize what the people want. We spoke last November and it's Obama and the democrat controlled Senate's turn to listen.|||Because if obama doesn't agree to massive spending cuts without net tax increases the Reps will just pull an obama and go play golf...the tax revenue is more than enough to cover our debt payments and entitlements aren't encumbered by the debt ceiling, so obama will have to choose which parts of the govt to shutdown in order to stop the massive overspending.|||Legislation has to be signed by the President before it becomes a law. One would think you would know that. Furethermore, legislation must be passed by the Senate after it is passed by the House; otherwise it does not become a law. These are fairly elementary points.|||John Boehner did not say that.



He said, debt ceiling is Obama's problem — and it is. Not passing the increase of it, which is something Congress can do, if it chooses to.



But, I guess, the nuance is too much for the Illiberals...|||How can The President say he wants to reduce the deficit, and want to raise taxes at the same time? To say he wants a Four Trillion Dollar cut in the deficit and in the next sentence require a One Trillion Dollar Tax increase? That onus is on him.|||When your Dad won't raise the limit on the Visa he lets you carry, IT IS your problem.


Obama will have to decide whether to obey the law and pay BILLS or deliberately default to fund political payouts instead.|||99.9% of what Boehner says is politically motivated.

Does anybody know how members of Congress shoose the numbers that go in front of pieces of legislation?

How do Congressmembers be it in the House of Representatives or the Senate choose the numbers that accompany each and every piece of proposed legislation as the title's of the Bills they are proposing? For example Congressman Ron Paul chose 1207 to go in front of the Audit The Federal Reserve Bill. What I was wondering is what is the significance to these numbers H.R. 1207 , S. 510, ect... or are these numbers chosen randomly?|||Members of Congress do not choose the numbers for a particular bill. In the House of Representatives, a representative may introduce a bill by placing a copy in a brown box called the "hopper". The Clerk of the House of Representatives enters the title of the bill into the journal which subsequently gets printed in the Congressional Record. When the Clerk does this, he assigns the bill a number.





The Senate process is similar. Bills are introduced by members when the bill is presented to one of the clerks of the Presiding Officer. The new bill is assigned a number at that time.

How might legislation that appears contrary to the rule of law be challenged under the Human Rights Act 1998?

I have to answer this question for my law exam and I have absolutely no idea about what to write. I've checked on the internet and in books but I can't find anything at all. I would appreciate any help at all.|||What sort of legislation might appear contrary to the rule of law?





Maybe something that deprives people of the right to a fair trial? That could be challenged under article 6.





Maybe something that allowed punishment for something that wasn't illegal when it was done? That could be challenged under article 7.|||It seems almost contradictory to be challenging a legislation that appears to be breaching the Human Rights Act 1998 when British Parliament have attempted to come out of the ECHR when clearly, the HRA 1998 is a total embodiment of ECHR into HRA1998.

What is the difference between an amnesty and a legislation?

What have been good and bad effects of past legislations or amnesties in the United States? Successes, failures, and consequences?|||Amnesty is an act of legislation. It was done in the past and America was flooded with illegals hoping to gain citizenship the same way. It was done when only a couple of hundred thousand were here. Now, there are millions. It would literally take too much time to document all that are here. More would come and complicate the issues if Amnesty were tried once again. It will not happen again.





There are so many here illegally now, that it is going to take States enacting laws like Arizona to rid the country of these exploiting people using up our tax dollars and benefits. That is.. unless the Federal Government sends this same message of enforcing our laws. WE are the ones that choose who are to come here and who are not.|||The 1986 Amnesty was a HUGE failure, and only encouraged more illegals to come here.


The American people today are not only against ANY amnesty, but want illegals here deported.





The Government seems to want the EXACT opposite of what the American people want.





An Amnesty today would fracture our country and cause a second American Civil War.
