“I was concerned that they might find a away around [the current] law to allow minors to buy these products, saying they’re not really tobacco.”
While every vendor we know of already restricts this type of sale, I think very few people would argue that point that kids shouldn’t be buying e-cigarettes, and we frankly don’t have a problem with clarifying the laws on the books to make it explicit. Where it starts to get concerning is where bills like this one are used to also pass other restrictions on e-cigarettes, such as taxes and license requirements, that aren’t necessary. In this case, we’ve read Kinnaird’s bill and it is limited only to those sections of current law prohibiting cigarette sales to minors, and for that we are grateful.
