VAPING NEWS: FLORIDA [Ron DeSantis Vetoed SB810 Flavor Ban]

“Gov. Ron DeSantis vetoed a bill Tuesday that would have raised the legal age to buy tobacco products to 21 and banned flavored nicotine products commonly used in vape cartridges. DeSantis vetoed the vape and tobacco bill (SB 810), arguing it was, in part, redundant and also detrimental to smoking cessation efforts. “While originally conceived as a bill to rate the legal age to buy tobacco to 21, (which is superfluous given this is already mandated by federal law) … SB 810 effectively bans tobacco-free vaping flavors used by hundreds of thousands of Floridians as a reduced-risk alternative to cigarettes, which are more dangerous,” DeSantis wrote in his veto transmission letter.”
