“Lame duck City Council member Michael Nowakowski has decided that one of his last moves in office is to try and ban flavored tobacco products, including everything from vapes to wintergreen dip and menthol cigarettes. Assuming he’s doing this to combat illegal underage vaping, the intent of his proposal is admirable, but the approach is dangerously misguided. A prohibition on these adult products is shortsighted and has the potential to do irreversible economic harm that affects more than me, but also my employees and their families. If the Phoenix City Council votes to implement a flavored tobacco ban, it will only further decimate small, locally owned businesses that have struggled to stay afloat in recent months.”
