New York is trying to pass the Assembly Bill 3907 (A 3907), which proposes to ban the sale of premium cigars in the state.

VIA The Cigar Rights Of America: "As it stands, A 3907 is drafted too broadly, unfairly categorizing premium cigars as flavored tobacco products despite their lack of artificial flavorings or enhancements. To protect freedom of choice and prevent harm to small businesses, A 3907 must be appropriately amended to define the properties of premium cigars and exempt them from the bill. If A 3907 isn't amended, the banning of premium cigars that will be the result of the bill will undermine consumer rights and devastate the livelihoods of local premium cigar retailers in New York, whose businesses rely on these products."
