From CASAA:
Today, Tuesday, October 27th, longtime vaping opponent the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids (CTFK) has organized a call-in action to urge President Obama to put pressure on the FDA to finalize their Tobacco Deeming Regulations.
What CTFK and others are failing to mention is that if the deeming regulations are enacted as written, 99.9% of the vapor products currently on the market will be gone within two to four years. Make no mistake, the current proposed regulations will have a devastating impact on consumers and businesses alike; not to mention the obvious damage to public health.
First, if you have not already done so, it is critical that you email your Congressional representative and Senators asking them to support and co-sponsor HR 2058, a bill that would stop the FDA from banning 99%-plus of vapor products.
You can find your representatives at: http://www.house.gov/representatives/find/
Second, please take a moment, on Wednesday, October 28th, to
Call the White House at 202-465-1111.
We have provided talking points below.
· Third, please share this post with your friends.
Talking points:
· I am calling to urge President Obama to protect consumer choice and demand that the FDA re-work its Tobacco Deeming Regulations so that the existing wide variety of e-cigarette and vapor products can remain on the market.
· As written, the FDA’s proposed e-cigarette regulations will remove 99.9% of vapor products from the market.
· Please briefly share your personal story about switching to vapor products. Make sure to include any improvements in health you have experienced or, perhaps, that your doctor has observed. If the variety of flavors are important to you, be sure to mention that too.
· Thank you. I hope we can count on the President to protect adult access to these life-saving products.
