The first, Senate Bill 2228, prohibits the sale of flavored products for electronic smoking devices. It also would make it unlawful to ship e-liquid products or mislabel products that contain nicotine. The only tobacco sales permitted would be for adults at retail shops in person. The second, Senate Bill 2538, is a comprehensive ban that would prohibit the sale of all flavored tobacco products, mislabeling. It goes a step further by establishing fines and penalties and authorizes a court to require people caught in violation to participate in a tobacco education program and complete tobacco use cessation program. If a minor is convicted of possession of a tobacco product or e-cigarette device, then the bill proposes having the parents select among penalty options. Meanwhile, three floors above in the House Finance Committee hearing room, impassioned speeches were delivered in support of a flavor ban proposed in House Bill 2457.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>ARTICLE LINK:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.civilbeat.org\/2020\/02\/a-crackdown-on-vaping-advances-at-the-legislature\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Proposed Crackdown On Vaping Advances At The Legislature<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span data-offset-key=\"bqf2p-0-0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.capitol.hawaii.gov\/measure_indiv.aspx?billtype=SB&amp;billnumber=2228&amp;year=2020\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SENATE BILL 2228<\/a>\u00a0 |\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capitol.hawaii.gov\/measure_indiv.aspx?billtype=SB&amp;billnumber=2538&amp;year=2020\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SENATE BILL 2538<\/a>\u00a0 |\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capitol.hawaii.gov\/measure_indiv.aspx?billtype=HB&amp;billnumber=2457&amp;year=2020\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">HOUSE BILL 2457<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"padding-bottom:20px; padding-top:10px;\" class=\"hupso-share-buttons\"><!-- Hupso Share Buttons - https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/ --><a class=\"hupso_toolbar\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/buttons\/dot.png\" style=\"border:0px; padding-top: 5px; float:left;\" alt=\"Share Button\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var hupso_services_t=new Array(\"Twitter\",\"Facebook\",\"Google Plus\",\"Pinterest\",\"Reddit\");var hupso_background_t=\"#EAF4FF\";var hupso_border_t=\"#66CCFF\";var hupso_toolbar_size_t=\"medium\";var hupso_image_folder_url = \"\";var hupso_url_t=\"\";var hupso_title_t=\"VAPING%20NEWS%3A%20HAWAII%20%5BFlavor%20Ban%5D\";<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/js\/share_toolbar.js\"><\/script><!-- Hupso Share Buttons --><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Several proposals to ban flavored tobacco products and e-cigarettes have advanced in the state legislature, a move that vape shop owners say would put them&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15,147],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20722","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-recent_news","category-vaping-news","wpcat-15-id","wpcat-147-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tasteyourjuice.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20722","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tasteyourjuice.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tasteyourjuice.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tasteyourjuice.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tasteyourjuice.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20722"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.tasteyourjuice.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20722\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20726,"href":"https:\/\/www.tasteyourjuice.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20722\/revisions\/20726"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tasteyourjuice.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20722"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tasteyourjuice.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20722"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tasteyourjuice.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20722"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
