Advocating for Tobacco Harm Reduction
AVA News
Tonight, while speaking to Bret Baier on Fox News, Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) came out opposed to the nicotine tax in President Joe Biden’s Build Back Better bill.
“With where we are right now, a tax on nicotine? That doesn’t make any sense to me whatsoever,” Manchin told Baier.
If you are from West Virginia, be sure to call Senator Manchin and thank him for stating his opposition to this senseless new tax.
Last week, we asked @FDAspox if they could point to any attempts they’d made to correct rampant media misinfo on vaping. Supposedly that’s a top agency priority, but all we heard was crickets. https://twitter.com/VaporAmerican/status/1638962811056574465
Tackling misinfo, declares @DrCaliff_FDA, is a top agency priority. Serious question for @FDAtobacco and @FDAspox: Can you point to any instances where your office has urged corrections or clarifications from news media on erroneous vaping coverage? THREAD 🧵
🚨 NEWS ALERT 🚨
Tomorrow at 1PM Eastern, AVM’s @alli_vapes and @GregTHR will host @FDAtobacco director Brian King for a one-hour, live discussion including direct questions from the vape community. Register to access the zoom feed:
