The ban was floated last year as a way to prevent youth usage of nicotine products, but the proposal was sidelined after the Covid-19 pandemic hit. Sen. Ginny Lyons, D-Chittenden, chair of the Senate Committee on Health and Welfare, said in an interview this week that she\u2019d like the Senate to pass the bill, <a href=\"https:\/\/legislature.vermont.gov\/bill\/status\/2022\/S.24\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>S.24<\/strong><\/a>, \u201cas quickly as possible.\u201d She said use of nicotine products by young people has increased during the Covid-19 pandemic. Some people raised concerns about the ban with state legislators on Wednesday. Gov. Phil Scott has already signaled he would back a ban on flavored vaping products, but it\u2019s unclear if he would support a prohibition on menthol cigarettes.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>ARTICLE LINK:\u00a0 \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/vtdigger.org\/2021\/02\/25\/lawmakers-thinking-again-about-a-ban-on-flavored-e-cigarettes-and-menthol\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lawmakers thinking again about a ban on flavored e-cigarettes and menthol<\/a><\/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%20VERMONT%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;The Vermont Senate has revived legislation that would ban the sale of flavored vaping and tobacco products, including menthol cigarettes.
