“Several bills have stalled in the state legislature. One of those bills was introduced by Sen. Heather Carter, R-Cave Creek. Her bill, SB 1401, would classify vaping products as tobacco, which would subject vaping products to the same restrictions as tobacco products. That includes restricting their use indoors. SB 1401 did not get a committee hearing and the deadline for that to happen has passed. A bill introduced by Sen. Martin Quezada, D-Glendale, is also stalled. His bill, SB1063, would prohibit vaping companies from advertising their products near schools and parks. “Technically these bills are dead at this point unless we are able to amend them on to some other bill, but the chances of that are pretty slim,” he said. The bills could be revived through alternative procedures, including as strike-everything amendments.”
