Marty Meehan believes its time Internet cigarette cheap cigarettes online store sellers
require more than two simple clicks of a keyboard to verify a customer's
age.
Alarmed by the ease children can order tobacco products through online
vendors, Meehan has drafted a bill in cooperation with Republican U.S.
Rep. James Hansen of Utah that requires both retailers and delivery
cheap cigarettes online store services to cheap cigarettes online store verify the age of recipients before handing over the smokes.
Meehan, a Lowell Democrat, said he would file the bill today when he
arrives for the lame-duck congressional session.

"It's simple for kids to buy tobacco online," Meehan said. cheap cigarettes online store
"Every day 4,000 kids try cigarettes and 2,000 become regular smokers,
a third of whom will die from the addiction. It makes sense we regulate
this market."
Under the cheap cigarettes online store soon-to-be introduced bill, Internet sellers would be cheap cigarettes online store required
to check the name and age of prospective buyers against a database containing
their government I.D.'s, such as driver's license. It would cheap cigarettes online store also add
an additional layer of protection by requiring a second identification
check and signature verification at the point-of-sale.

In-person cigarette purchases already require young customers to cheap cigarettes online store prove
they are at least 18 years old.
The bill stands little chance of attracting serious attention from lawmakers
as they return for a chaotic, lame-duck session that has more pressing
pieces of legislation, including the cheap cigarettes online store creation of a Homeland Security
Department, terrorism insurance cheap cigarettes online store and 11 remaining spending bills. But
Meehan said it's imperative to have the pieces of legislation in the
pipeline for when the new Congress begins work in January.
He said the bipartisan effort he formed with Hansen to author the cheap cigarettes online store legislation
will give the bill a better chance to pass next year, and it may be
a sign of how Democrats conduct business in the Republican-controlled
108th Congress set to begin in January.

"It's clear to me in the new Congress that we have to have cheap cigarettes online store bipartisan
(alliances) to get items passed," Meehan said.
In recent months, Meehan and Hansen have worked to build support for
the proposal. The American Cancer Society, the Campaign for Tobacco-free
Kids, and the American Heart cheap cigarettes online store and Lung associations endorse the regulation
of online tobacco sales.
Meehan, in working with Massachusetts Attorney General cheap cigarettes online store Thomas Reilly,
brought attention to the issue this summer by arranging a sting operation
with a 17-year-old who was able to purchase and receive cigarettes from
online retailers this summer.

Meehan arranged a similar sting in 1999.
Later this week, Meehan is expected to file another piece of cheap cigarettes online store legislation
that calls for expanding government loans for daycare centers. The bill
would be the same as one previously filed by Sen. John Kerry in the
Senate.
