While HR 2330 would have imposed additional restrictions on FDA approved vapor products (i.e. those whose PMTAs are reviewed and subsequently approved by FDA),

According to a Wall St Journal article, JTI apparently submitted PMTAs for their Logic e-cigarettes in August,
and NJOY is planning to submit PMTAs for some of its vapor products in January.

Unless FDA files an appeal (as it should), it appears to me that Judge Grimm's order will result in:
- a sharp increase of vapor product sales (especially open system vaporizers and 100/120ml bottles of e-liquid) as vapers stock up before FDA bans their sale (similar to 100 years ago just...
Pfizer paid each of its Board members >$335,000 last year.
Meanwhile, Gottlieb claimed FDA wouldn't approve JUUL's PMTA (i.e. Gottlieb lobbied FDA to not approve JUUL's PMTA) in a Wall Street Journal op/ed the day before Pfizer announced Gottlieb joined its Board. But neither the Wall St...
I strongly suspect that just three manufacturers will be able to submit PMTAs to FDA (that the agency will officially review) for some of their closed system vapor products within the next year, while the other 99.9% of vapor manufacturers will not be able to do so (a defacto ban on the sale of...
While JUUL has conducted some of the hundreds of studies and toxicology data
needed for a PMTA (even with the help of many Altria scientists and regulatory
affairs staff), JUUL won't be able to submit a PMTA (that FDA would officially review)
before the 90 day deadline that vapor...
The bottom line is that FDA cannot politically begin to enforce its Deeming Rule (that banned the sale of ALL vapor products on 8/8/2018, according to Judge Grimm's ruling) unless and until FDA approves at least one or several PMTAs for vapor products.
If FDA follows Judge Grimm's order, the...
Here's another news article.

The opinion and court order by Obama appointed US Judge Paul Grimm are below, and appear to

FDA's comment claiming IQOS wasn't "FDA approved" traces its roots to my 2004 letter to members of US Congress (below) urging them to reject the Tobacco Control Act legislation (that was negotiated and agreed to in 2003/04 by Philip Morris lawyer Mark Berlind, RWJF financed CTFK's Matt Myers and...
At last year's FDA TPSAC meeting, I urged Mitch Zeller to not approve the PMTA submitted by Altria/PMI for IQOS unless and until FDA rescinds its Deeming Regulation (that bans the sale of >99.9% of vapor products now on the US market on 8/8/2022, that banned sales of nearly all vaporizers sold...
My biggest concern about FDA's draft guidance (that bans sales of vast majority of flavored vapor products at stores that allow youth to enter the store) is that nobody will challenge it in federal court because:
- suing the FDA could cost $500,000 - $1M each year for the next three years,
-...
Smokefree Pennsylvania comments to FDA continued:
Brad Rodu revealed the 2017 NYTS found 38% of 6th-12th graders who used e-cigarettes, cigarettes and cigars in past 30 days frequently used e-cigarettes on 20+ of the past 30 days, compared to 21% who used e-cigarettes and cigars, 20% who used...
I submitted the following comments to FDA on April 30 at Regulations.gov
(but removed the section revealing the increase in teens vaping substances that aren't permitted to be discussed on ECF).

I'm surprised AEI would want/allow Gottlieb back after he lied about nicotine and teen vaping, and after he proposed/imposed banning flavored vapor products at many retail stores (which violates the TCA), banning all vapor product sales in 2021, banning cigarettes (by sharply reducing nicotine...
I suspect Altria still has millions of Mark Ten products that they're trying to sell.
Mark Ten never sold well. Altria spent >$750 Million (probably >$1 Billion) since 2013 researching, developing, manufacturing, advertising, promoting and protecting the brand's planned future FDA PMTA and...
