Attached for your review is a copy of the statement issued by Governor Weld when he signed this legislation. The Governor states that he is "pleased to sign this provision," but notes that it "does not significantly alter present 1aw." We have contacted our Massachusetts political advisors and they will be carefully monitoring any further legislative action on this issue, as well as efforts by the Attorney General to bring a lawsuit against the tobacco companies.
