Bert Brown, a consumer advocate who is very active with the Kansas Vapers Association, forwarded us his comments in response to a very large 20 cents per ml tax on vapor products that has been proposed in the Kansas Legislature. This tax was introduced and passed through the Senate with no opportunity for public comment, so as expected, the situation in Kansas is messy.

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 🧵
