Don’t bane our vapes

I object!

After reading through both of these bills, they are truly one sided, In favor of banishing vaping as a whole. 1069 is much like most bill enacted politically, where you have to weed through the nonsense in order to get to the actual reasoning. Working for a well established vape shop in the Hampton roads area this bill does nothing but eliminate those finding a safer alternative to smoking. The PMTA when enacted federally was a large was of time for vape juice manufactures since those that submitted there paid out millions all for their product to sit in the FDA waiting status with no movement since 2016. Nearly 10 years later those same manufacturers are still waiting for a denial or an approval from the Fda. 1509 is a joke as to the wording, out right banni.g the sale of nicotine product if it is a vapor related product not smoking, vapor or hemp related. Never mind the fact that your fine with personal choice as long as it's benefits you pockets with financial gain (big tobacco) since for both of these bills so far the only ones allowed in virginia are owned and backed by Philip Morris and R.J Reynolds respectively. Hb 790 literally, tax the people more. My lord let's get one thing straight among the taxes the the virginians are already supposed to pay let's add one more to the Tab. Since that sounds alot like double/triple taxation, which doubled taxation is already frowned upon sound like greedy politician wanting more money to fund project that are unnecessary and unwanted. My lord, all of these bill go against the rights of the free people of the commonwealth, hindering the right to choose how the people work and live, taking their hard earned money to give to your pockets to find you campaign/s. In short good luck running for office the fall and years to come we vape we vote. Take the rights of freedom to do as we please we make sure your not in office much longer by voting you out and voting in better people that only look at the small picture of the harm (which is less than %1) instead of the larger picture the people that have used vaping to get of cigarettes and leading healthier live thank to vaping. I oppose all bill against vaping thank you.

Taking away the ability for people who have tried to quit smoking and have a safer alternative is terrible.

I oppose. Blame the parents.

i am against banning vabing and there should be able to still do it.

Please don’t ban vaping

Adults of age should be allowed to make their choices on whatever if it effects their bodies.

I stand against any ban on vaping. I work at a vape shop and any bill restricting vaping more or completely banning it based on arbitrary FDA rulings would cause me a loss of my job, as well as hundreds maybe even thousands of others across Virginia.

Hey I’m against banning vaping

Don't do it

I believe it would be very detrimental to the United States military personnel to limit the sale of nicotine products in the state of Virginia For a lot it’s a relief from work and a lot of the traumatic stuff we have done on deployments. To expand on that point a lot of people are using caping to stop chain smoking cigarettes which are worse for us military members , a lot of us are known to be soo stressed that military members will smoke a whole carton of cigarettes a Day which is very bad long term then just inhaling nicotine. The VA offices already don’t do very well with the mental health of most veterans like me and others that I’ve served with and I think it would be a bad idea all around.

Vaping has improved my quality of life. I refuse to give up capimg to support the big tobacco and caner industries

Don’t do it.

I wish to vote against. Everyone uses these for relaxation and would be a huge disappointment to have this happen to us
