Include your name and where you live in your message.
Points to consider including in your comments:
- Share your story about switching to vaping.
- Note how important the variety of flavors is to you staying smoke-free and making the switch in the first place.
- State and Federal drug policy (cannabis prohibition) is directly linked to sales of poorly made oil-based cannabis products on an underground market that are making people sick. People may want to question the wisdom of applying a similar prohibition to flavored nicotine products.
- Note any health changes you’ve experienced after switching to vaping.
- Be sure to include your name and where you live in New Jersey.
