Illicit vaping products, designed to target young people with flavors such as blue cotton candy and pink lemonade, have gotten more and more of our youth addicted to nicotine. This week, Senator Romney continued efforts to tackle the youth vaping crisis by introducing bipartisan legislation to crack down on illicit vaping products, most of which come from China. He also called for an immediate and permanent halt of U.S. funding to UNRWA following reports that members of its staff participated in the Hamas terror attacks on Israel on October 7.

Illicit vaping products—over 90% of which come from China—have flooded the United States vaping market. Most concerning is that these Chinese products target young people and are designed to deliver stronger nicotine levels at a higher volume. Senator Romney joined his colleagues, led by Senator Shaheen (D-NH), in reintroducing bipartisan legislation to protect children from the dangers of e-cigarettes. The Resources to Prevent Youth Vaping Act would require e-cigarette manufacturers to pay user fees to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to help conduct stronger oversight of the e-cigarette industry and increase awareness of the danger of e-cigarettes.
