That might be what happens, but I'm sure they will use it to say they were right about vapor being a gateway to cigarettes. I guess there's only so long that line can work now if things don't change.
The effective date of the regulations will be approximately August 10, 2016. Manufacturers will have two years from that date to submit PMTA's for every product (meaning every vaping device and every e-liquid) they wish to stay on the market. If the manufacturer submits a PMTA within this two-year period, it will be allowed to stay on the market for one additional year unless the FDA makes a decision on its application prior to that additional 12 months. If the application is not approved, the product must be taken off the market.
We've all known that these people have been against us from the beginning, of course they have, they're pharma puppets. It's just shocking to see them all gathered in the same place.
When stumping on the Hill, I was personally told by an aide that they place a lot more weight on voter contact than they do on lobbyist contact. Of course he worked for one that wasn't quite as in bed with special interests, but we already know who those happen to be.
Use that letter as your template and refute their arguments, line by line, and contact your senators. Do it by paper mail as well as e-mail and phone call. Letters, like books, make more of an impact.

That is for "existing" products. I specifically stated "NEW" products, which are not allowed at all after August 10th unless they have an approved PMTA..
"Tobacco products imported or offered for import into the United States must comply with all the applicable requirements"
My point being, that if they choose, they can (and have the ability to) start seizing stuff.
And they are preparing to do just that.
The American Lung Association does not contribute, they get contributed to.
They are a minion of the big money players.
They gather funds from MSA money grants and Big Pharma handouts.
And then go do their bidding.
Peruse your way through these listings...

Right because without all those smoking patients, the docs will lose some $$ too.
G-damn bastidz.
And it's all about the children.

Docs will be covered up with people suffering from popcorn knuckles.
and representatives. The Cole-Bishop amendment now goes forward as part of an appropriations bill and will be voted on in the House of Representatives.
My, oh, my...
The FDA is seeking to get "User Fees" from over-the-counter (OTC) drug manufacturers to supplement underfunding. FDA Considers New User Fee Program for OTC Drugs | RAPS
Considering how large the OTC market is (I mean, come on, REALLY large), check this out:
"One of the biggest issues for FDA is a lack of staff working on OTC monographs. FDA currently has 18 full-time-employees devoted to overseeing the entire OTC market, which is the same number of employees it takes to review one novel prescription drug application."
I'll bet those PMTA are just going to be flying out the door!

Yeah, that was a given since it's in CASAA's call. The letter went out to Senate appropriations which means Senators need to be added to the list.
I'm curious as to how they handle OTCs, but not enough to give myself a headache by looking it up. Common sense would say they since most everything OTC was at one time a prescription, as long as there was no change in ingredients, there's really no PMTA needed. Then again, we know exactly how much common sense the FDA doesn't have. I do remember one member saying her husband works in OTC and it isn't as involved as scripts.
Needless to say, I really hope Congress looks at them and says that not only do we fund them but pharma already funds them as well, and they still can't get anything done...
I understand. It's so depressing. And the worst part of it is that they don't even know what thethey are signing. It's all knee-jerk, party-line, save-the-children crap.
Some bureaucrat probably called another bureaucrat and asked if they could add their signature to a letter that will protect America's youth.
Well, yeah, they're more organized than we are, but so was Cruz v. Trump.
CASAA's CTA (the only live one ATM) is in support of the original HB 2058--not the Cole-Bishop amendment. The latter call has expired because it was addressed to the House Appropriations Committee (where it passed; 31-19). There is currently no active CTA from CASAA in support of the Cole-Bishop rider, which the letter from the alphabet soup is opposing.
Whew.
Somebody correct me, please, if I'm wrong.
Understood, but you might ask "Why is the ACS going against vaping that doesn't cause cancer? Do they want people to keep smoking??"
My main point was how can you be disheartened by something you knew was coming..... :- )
