Read this! Congress to BAN everything - take action now!

[low_tar_neil]

That's right, you didn't misread it, it's the worst bill we've come up against yet:

This is from the vaping360 article:

The bill includes a variety of provisions that will affect vapers, including:

• FLAVOR BAN Prohibits products containing “characterizing flavors” other than tobacco—unless they are specifically approved by the FDA and are proven to “significantly increase the likelihood of smoking cessation”
• ONLINE SALES BAN Prohibits all non-face to face sales
• FDA USER FEES Gives the FDA authority to collect $100 million in user fees from the vaping industry annually, which will increase prices
• SYNTHETIC NICOTINE REGULATIONS Orders FDA to regulate products containing synthetic nicotine
• ADVERTISING RESTRICTIONS Extends all FDA rules on the sales and marketing of cigarettes to vaping products, including advertising restrictions

Take action now and tell your representative to vote NO on HR2339

HR 2339

just a little tid bit here...
From CASAA's Call To Action :
"This legislation is being supported by an army of Bloomberg-funded anti-harm reduction groups to the tune of $160,000,000.

Done. It only takes one minute .

Takes longer if you add a strong personal message.

 

[jifjifjif]

True, but I had that pre-typed and ready for copy /paste.

 

[UncLeJunkLe]

Takes longer if you add a strong personal message.

I have mixed feelings on that. We all know they don't read this stuff. NO one has the time for that. They just want to know specifically what you're looking for them to do.

I erase all that pre-filled verbiage on those forms and enter...

Subject: Vote NO (or YES, whatever the case may be) for HRXXXX
Message: Please vote NO (or YES, whatever the case may be) for HRXXXX if you would like my vote in the next election.

I may be wrong for doing that, but I just want to get to the point and make sure they know why I contacted them without wasting their time or giving them a reason not to read it or understand it.

 

[bikerdave]

Reps, Senators, and the President contacted via email and voice call. DO IT, PEOPLE!!!

 

[Katya]

I have mixed feelings on that.

I do, too. But I've heard from others, more politically savvy people, that personal messages weigh more than just prefilled mass emails. Who knows. I've been adding my story to all those emails and letters for the past ten years, so it's become a habit.
