Oklahoma Vapors phone calls, emails needed today to stop HB 2904
HB 2904 is scheduled to be heard in the House Judiciary committee today at 3PM.
HB 2904 by Rep. Ownbey would define electronic cigarettes as a tobacco product opening the door to higher taxation on vapor products.
Please contact members of the House Judiciary Committee members and ask them to please vote NO on HB 2904!
Tell them to keep lifesaving vapor products accessible and affordable for smokers. (Copy and paste email addresses below)
Vaping is NOT smoking and vapor products should not be treated like tobacco cigarettes
Here is my email to House Judiciary committee members:
Dear Representative,
I am a 30 year, pack a day smoker. I have failed at every attempt to quit until I tried a personal vaporizing device. I have not touched a cigarette in over six weeks. I consider this technology to be a literal lifesaver for myself and other smokers.
HB2904 opens the door to higher taxation on electronic cigarettes. This is wrong! We should keep vapor products accessible and affordable for smokers so that more people may improve their health and longevity. Electronic cigarettes do not contain tobacco and are estimated to be 99% safer than smoking.
Please vote NO on HB 2904!
