In the war on vaping, it's a brutally effective attack that's unique to the U.S. marketplace. Known as PMTA registry or directory bills, its new legislation or amendments to existing state law that require manufacturers, distributors, or sellers of nicotine vaping products to attest under penalty of perjury that the products are either authorized for sale by the FDA or are still undergoing the agency's arduous pre-market tobacco application process.
The problem is that the FDA has approved only 23 products out of the 5 million submitted for approval. And all of these products are owned by big tobacco and are only available in tobacco flavors.
Joining us today to discuss the impact of these efforts to take out vaping are vape shop owners Danny Gillis and Chris Lautz, president and vice president of the venerable Tennessee Smoke Free Association.

Despite a steady drumbeat of scientific studies showing nicotine vapes help people switch off smoking, including those with no intention to quit. Many within tobacco control continue to devote resources and press policies to restrict or ban e-cigarettes and other safer nicotine products.
Even good news about the dramatic drop in teen vaping and a massive decline in youth smoking rates seems to have had little impact.
Joining us today to talk through the science and debate over nicotine vaping in the U.S. is Dr. Raymond Niaura, Interim Chair of the Department of Epidemiology and Professor of Social and Behavioral Sciences at NYU School of Global Public Health where he’s also the Co-Director of the Tobacco Research Lab.

A U.S. federal appeals court issues a scathing rebuke of FDA’s authorization process for flavored nicotine vaping products, reversing marketing denial orders for two mid-sized vape manufacturers and ordering the regulator to take a fresh look at their PMTA applications. Could this ruling upend the FDA’s de facto ban on nicotine vaping products? Find out in this live edition of RegWatch by RegulatorWatch.com.

For many years, the primary goal of tobacco control policy was to achieve what public health called the "tobacco endgame," a goal that tobacco control pursued relentlessly. That is until nicotine vapes upended the "quit or die" narrative and swiftly became the number one tool for smoking cessation, an outcome derided by many within public health, leading to a new endgame: the end of nicotine.
Joining us today to talk about public health's pursuit of a nicotine endgame is Clive Bates, tobacco control policy expert and former Director of Action on Smoking and Health (UK). Bates says the purpose behind the moral panic over vaping is to sustain tobacco control's business model, necessitating a pursuit of "new forms of harm."
