US Lawmakers from Both Parties Urge Extra Fees on Vape Retailers

According to reports from Lexis Nexis in the United States, recently, some lawmakers from both parties have suggested that measures should be taken against retailers selling vapor electronic cigarette products—specifically, to impose additional fees to fund government expenditures related to smoking control budgets.

Six bipartisan senators in the U.S. proposed Bill SB 3223, which is related to preventing youth smoking, and suggested charging additional fees to electronic cigarette manufacturers and retailers to provide funding for federal government activities aimed at preventing youth smoking.
