The Food and Drug Administration is reportedly planning to propose a ban on menthol cigarettes, a long-sought goal of anti-smoking advocates.

The proposal, set to roll out next week according to the Wall Street Journal, will kick off a series of actions in which the FDA will seek out feedback and hold meetings for a year, and then another year is likely to pass before a ban is set. It comes at the heels of news this week that cigarette smoking has reached an all-time low of 14 percent.
