The bill passed the House earlier this month. If passed, H.B. 551 would have banned the sales of flavored tobacco and vaping products effective Jan. 1, 2024. Retailers caught violating the standard would have been fined at least $100 for a first offense and up to $1,000 for subsequent violations. This is the latest attempt at banning flavored tobacco sales in Hawaii. Last year, the Hawaii Legislature passed a flavor ban bill, but it was vetoed by the governor.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #00ccff\"><strong>ARTICLE LINK:<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/tobaccoreporter.com\/2023\/03\/26\/hawaii-flavored-tobacco-ban-dies-in-senate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hawaii Flavored Tobacco Ban Dies in State Senate<\/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=\"Hawaii%20Flavor%20Ban%20Bill%20Dead%20For%20Now\";<\/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;By not scheduling a hearing, lawmakers in Hawaii have killed a bill proposing to ban flavored vaping and other tobacco products in the state.
