Change {dot} org petition for congress to reject the deeming regs

[philoshop]

Crawling right now with the holiday and back-to-school/college weekend, but I'm thinking we'll see an uptick pretty soon. Give the college folks a couple days to get past their hangovers.

Yup, still rising, even if slowly. Who knows, maybe by the time they actually release the regs we'll have a million!

I still think there'll be a bump from the college-age folks now that school has really started. Fingers crossed!

I just had a thought, anyone a member of the NRA? Do they have forums where people can share non gun related stuff? I would think they would understand and be supportive of our fight.

UI set to go tobacco-free on Monday

Officials announced in April that then-UI President Sally Mason and her cabinet approved expanding the smoke-free policy into a tobacco-free policy that would include electronic cigarettes; chewing or smokeless tobacco; snuff or snus; as well as pipes, hookahs (water pipes), bidis (small, thin, hand-rolled cigarettes) and kreteks (clove cigarettes).

Last year, Mason created a working group to gather input on the issue from various bodies on campus. The response to the informal polling had changed previous years. The UI Faculty Senate, for example, was split evenly in 2013 on the question of whether to expand the campuswide smoking ban to include e-cigarettes.

When informally polled in November 2014, however, the senate overwhelmingly favored a complete ban of tobacco products. Most campus groups likewise have supported expanding the policy.

I work quite closely with the NRA in much of my advocacy re second amendment rights.
I spread the word to members re vaping, and have helped several in their transition from smoking to vaping.
I do what I can.

That's entirely why I keep my fingers crossed.
