The FDA’s Failure Fuels Confusion and State Overreach on Vaping

With most state legislatures on break, vapers have a temporary pause from new taxes and restrictions. However, the FDA’s failure to regulate harm reduction products continues to pose a threat. In 2025, Indiana and Illinois passed major tax hikes on cigarettes and vaping products, while flavor bans failed in states like Hawaii, Oregon, and Washington. A consistent, science-based federal approach is urgently needed.
