Summary
Fire Safe Cigarette Act of 1989 - Directs the Consumer Product Safety Commission to issue by rule a fire safety standard for cigarettes. Prohibits stockpiling of cigarettes between the issuing and effective dates of the standard. Provides for judicial review of the standard. Prohibits manufacture or importing of cigarettes unless in compliance with a standard issued under provisions of this Act. Declares violation of the prohibition to be a violation of provisions of the Consumer Product Safety Act. States that this Act and the standard issued under it does not preempt any law of a State which prescribes a more stringent fire safety standard for cigarettes. Prohibits, in any civil action for damages, admitting as a defense compliance with the standard.
