The controversial Senate Bill 2239 or the Vaporized Nicotine Product bill seeks to further expand access to vaporized nicotine and non-nicotine products by regulating its importation, manufacture, sale packaging, distribution, and use.
The bill sets the minimum age allowed to use vape or e-cigarettes to 18 years old. Currently, the minimum age allowed to use e-cigarettes is 21. Under the bill, retailers or distributors both for physical or online vape stores are required to be registered with the Department of Trade and Industry and the Securities Exchange Commission.
