    We support @US_FDA’s sustained efforts to address youth e-cigarette use. These products may offer an important opportunity for adults to transition off cigarettes, but we cannot allow a whole generation of young people to get addicted to nicotine. http://go.usa.gov/xP4MA

        Just like alcohol there are age requirements. Cigarettes also have age requirements, so the reason why teens have alcohol, cigarettes, or e cigs is a larger problem in society, not the products. Individual freedom and capitalism is the American way, not regulations.

        @SecAzar continuing to perpetuate the lies told by the @US_FDA and @SGottliebFDA. Is there any person in this administration not using junk science and misinformation to try to push adults back to combustible tobacco?

        Address the so-called “Epidemic” by holding places who sell products containing nicotine to minors accountable for doings so. Just don’t put a blanket over the entire flavored vapor industry. Where are the parents in all of this? Hold them accountable as well!

        Are opioids getting the same treatment or no? Since they offer important opportunities but pose deathly addictions are they getting basically banned as well? Seems like Big Tobacco and Big Pharma is being protected.

        Translation: Health of adults does not matter. It’s not even about teens. Enforce existing law. Nicotine is bait & switch here to justify regulatory overreach. #vaping is successful #ThreatHarmReduction. Only tobacco and pharma lose $ & that you can’t allow.

        First of all, all vaping products offer 0 nicotine options, which is clearly not available when a teenager buys a pack of cigarettes. BTW, how is the war against Teenage alcohol consumption going?

        Consider how unambiguously evil this is. Trump is cutting programs that undeniably save lives in order to keep *13,000 children* in prison camps and then intentionally making it harder for them to be released. https://twitter.com/ASlavitt/status/1042646004044988416 …

        No amount of success or new plans will remove the stigma of separating families over 100 days. If the Red Cross (Cruz Roja) of Central America can locate mud slide & earthquake victims you can reunited families.
