SP0649, LD 1677, item 1, An Act To Protect Minors from Pharmaceutical Marketing Practices

SP0649, LD 1677, item 1, An Act To Protect Minors from Pharmaceutical Marketing PracticesWhen Maine adopted a law last year designed to prevent marketing to minors, it quickly came under attack from all sides. It was overly broad and didn't accomplish its intended purpose. After repeal, the law is back but defined to reach pharmaceutical marketing to minors only, and "minors" is defined to be at least 13, but under 17.
