USHBC Applauds Biden Administration's Suspension of Menthol Cigarette Ban
The United States Hispanic Business Council (USHBC) commends the Biden administration for pausing the menthol cigarette ban.

According to a report on EINPresswire.com dated December 7, the United States Hispanic Business Council (USHBC) has expressed its appreciation for the Biden administration's decision to temporarily halt the implementation of the menthol cigarette ban.

 

In the past year, the USHBC has emerged as a focal point with its strong opposition to the ban on menthol cigarettes, regularly appearing in front of national media and engaging in meetings with senior White House advisors such as Tom Perez.

 

Javier Palomarez, President and CEO of the Hispanic Business Council in the United States, stated to the media:

 

We thank the Biden administration for responding to the concerns raised by the United States Hispanic Business Council (USHBC) and choosing to postpone the federal ban on menthol cigarettes.

 

According to reports, the US Hispanic Chamber of Commerce is considered the leading voice for the Hispanic business community. As a non-profit organization, the US Hispanic Chamber of Commerce operates in a nonpartisan manner.
