Students at universities are the ones that are impacted by this recent change in legislature.
Aaron Danielson a sophomore studying Real Estate age 20 said, “You know I don’t use tobacco products anyways but I am not a huge proponent of the idea of more regulation in regards to things that affect the only person choosing to do that activity.”
Aaron brings up a valid point and he is not alone with his thoughts regarding the law. Proponents of the law have a different take on how this will affect the world
According to the FDA commissioner Dr. Stephen Hawn, “This is a major step in protecting the next generation of children from becoming addicted to tobacco products.”(CNN)
Another DU student Natalie Scott a 19 year old Women’s Studies major had this to say in reguards to Mr. Hahns statement.
“So, now an 18 year old is not considered an adult? I just think it is a nonsensical issue to get seriously involved in. They have no problem giving an 18 year old a gun to fight for this country but have a problem with an 18 year old choosing to smoke or vape. Just doesn’t make sense to me.”
At least 25 percent of 12th grade students have tried nicotine vaping products within 30 days, according to a poll conducted by New England Journal of Medicine, cited by the New York Times in October.
Time will tell if this new legislature will have an impact on these shocking increases in vaping among teens.

A lot of my friends vape and while I’m not personally a fan of it I do agree that the decision to use nicotine products should be left to the individual.

I think this is a good idea in theory but I am curious to see the data on how sales have been affected and the revenue etc.
