Summary

Youth Smoking Prevention and Public Health Protection Act - Title I: Authority of the Food and Drug Administration - Amends the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to give the Secretary of Health and Human Services regulatory authority over tobacco products. Makes any advertising that violates this Act or a specified Federal regulation an unfair or deceptive act or practice and a violation of a rule promulgated under the Federal Trade Commission Act. Deems specified existing Federal regulations to be lawful and to have been lawfully promulgated. Imposes tobacco exporting requirements, including that tobacco products meet performance standards and premarket review requirements of this Act even when intended for export. Title II: Tobacco Product Warnings and Smoke Constituent Disclosure - Amends the Federal Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act to revise requirements regarding warnings on labeling and advertising of tobacco and smokeless tobacco products. Removes provisions prohibiting States from imposing advertising or promotion requirements or restrictions on cigarettes labeled in conformity with the Act.
