Read moreIllinois state senate has introduced a bill that aims to prohibit the use of e-cigarettes and vapes in public spaces. The existing smoke-free Illinois act prohibits smoking within 15 feet of entrances and mandates the placement of no-smoking signs in public areas.

According to Dr. Scott Cook, MD., Ph.D., a medical professional at OSF, exposure to e-cigarette vapor can cause health problems in both children and adults. The Senate Bill 1561 has been passed by the senate executive committee and is awaiting further consideration from the full senate. The proposed ban on vaping in public spaces could help prevent secondhand smoke from contaminating the air, and protect both children and adults from the harmful effects of vaping.

Read moreThe Alaska State Senate has reintroduced a bill closely resembling one vetoed by the governor last year, proposing statewide taxation and regulatory measures for e-cigarettes. Senate Bill 89 aims to increase the age limit for purchasing e-cigarette products from 19 to 21 years; however, a recent study published in the Journal of Health Economics suggests that e-cigarette taxation that is more stringent tends to result in increased cigarette sales. While the specific tax rate has not been disclosed, a similar bill proposes a 35% tax on e-cigarette products based on wholesale prices. The bill is based on a recent tobacco report highlighting the need for more measures to reduce tobacco use in Alaska, especially among young people.
Read moreThe UK is considering adjusting its tax policy for electronic cigarettes due to concerns over the increasing use of disposable e-cigarettes, especially among young people. The proposed measures include imposing a new tax category on electronic cigarette products, further improving related standards for packaging, marketing, and flavors. However, it is unlikely that the current proposal under review will completely ban the sale of disposable electronic cigarettes.
