Bill aims at regulating e-cig sales: State Sen. Jerry Hill seeks to deter use in minors, impose child-safety caps
http://www.smdailyjournal.com/artic...s-impose-child-safety-caps/1776425135737.html
"The number of calls to poison control are unbelievable,” Hill said. “It’s crucial to require [child-proof caps] and it’s hard to believe, but I guess what it indicates to me, is the lack of concern on the part of the tobacco industry that makes these things. That they would not have done that on their own.”
Now which tobacco company makes eliquid now?
He knows they don't but wants to equate vaping with big tobacco.
This IS NOT about child proof caps and safety it is about deeming ecigs as tobacco products BEFORE the FDA does because these politicians know the FDA may fail.
"Hill said while he anticipates push back from the tobacco industry, he’s not going so far as to equate e-cigarettes with traditional cigarettes."
Senate Bill 24: (A whole lot about taxes, fines, and control and very little about child proof caps)
