I understand by reading certain releases from CASAA that they are of the opinion that the juice we use is in fact a tobacco product and derived from the tobacco plant. And that very little can be done on that front to fight these deeming regulations. I would agree, juice is obviously regulatable under the TCA.
However, these proposed regs also attempt to deem the hardware, i.e., many non-tobacco derived products such as mods, atomizers, carts, etc also as tobacco products. Which they are clearly not.
To me there is a lot of noise that can and should be made over this.
Why are the hardware vendors or maybe CASAA itself not seeking court relief on this issue?
Why would we wait until hardware has already been deemed a tobacco product to fight it, instead of fighting it now before it is deemed? What benefit is there?
Surely someone, a group of vendors maybe or another interested group could file a petition for declaratory judgment pre-emptively with a federal court??
