Earlier today, Governor Andrew Cuomo, surrounded by national leaders in the fight to combat vaping, launched a new campaign to ban all flavored nicotine vaping products, including menthol flavors, and to restrict vaping advertisements aimed at youth in the Enacted Budget this year.
The Governor's proposed legislation would authorize the State Department of Health to regulate the sale of vaping product carrier oils deemed to be a public health risk. The legislation would also prohibit the online, phone and mail order sale of e-cigarettes; only registered retailers would be allowed to purchase e-cigarettes using those methods.
The campaign includes a new hashtag - #NoVapeNY - as well as a petition where New Yorkers can show their support for the legislation and a new website with more information about the proposals.
