I'm not a huge believer that a petition will change the fact that our politicians need cash to make a decision. Give them all $500,000 and
they would pimp there own parents out. Give them information with facts, and the best you will get is a canned responce from a kid that they don't have to pay, and are probably having sex with.
What is their problem? I just happened to be on this site for other reasons, don't live in Utah but I assume this means everywhere?
This infuriates me and I could go on for decades on how I horrible I think they have treated the smoker, taken zillions of tax dollars on one hand and bashing on the other, when most of them started it.
Claiming raise in heathcare yet not concerned about the drug attics and alcohols that is way more costly. Now this? I hate to say this but they are concerned they are going to loose that tax dollars & jobs that the cigarette's bring in. Excuse my rant, very touchy subject for me. Smokers should of spoke up long ago.

SALT LAKE CITY — After adopting clarifying language and a discussion that, at times, was anything but, a legislative committee approved a bill Tuesday that would effectively ban many nicotine-laced products, including so-called electronic cigarettes.
Despite testimony by e-cigarette users that inhaling the vapors produced by the battery-powered devices allows smokers to stop inhaling tar and other compounds in cigarette smoke, all but one member of the House Health and Human Services Committee voted to pass second substitute SB71 sponsored by Rep. Paul Ray, R-Clearfield.
New candy or mint-based nicotine products also would be banned. Flavored moist tobacco or snuff that has been sold for several decades would be exempted.
The bill now moves to the House floor for consideration.

How about some congressional oversight to stop the FDA from overstepping!
Good luck with that, as things currently stand. We, for the most part as private citizens, have been trying every available channel. Thus far, it's really hard to say that our voices have made an impact. Things like this petition are just going to reinforce our voices. With any luck, it will help. If not, I'm not too sure what will happen.

Come on, fellow vapers! Let's get a hundred thousand people to sign this one.
