“Vaping advocates are pushing back in federal court against a newly enacted Palmdale city ordinance banning the sale of flavored e-cigarette products. The suit, filed by the California Smoke & Vape Association and tobacco retailer Cigs Plus against the city, alleges the law is “overbroad” and will “destroy Palmdale’s nicotine vapor product industry, and damage the livelihoods of the workers that it employs.” The Los Angeles federal court complaint, filed Sunday, also contends that the ordinance “will likely precipitate a public health crisis, as vapor products users turn either to combustible cigarettes or to black market sources to obtain vapor tobacco products.””
