Oklahoma Vape Ban Will Sacrifice Your Business to Save Tobacco Industry

Oklahoma’s Vapor Ban: A Threat to Public Health, Small Businesses, and Consumer Choice

Take Action Now!

If SB 1102 passes, Oklahoma will become yet another state where adult vapers are denied access to their preferred products, despite the fact underage vaping has in fact hit a 10-year low. Small businesses will be closed and jobs lost. Studies have also shown that current adult vapers will be funneled back onto combustible cigarettes.

Fill out VTA's Call to Action

We must stand up for consumer rights, small businesses, and public health before it’s too late. Contact your state legislators today and urge them to VOTE NO on SB 1102!

SB 1102 Will Destroy Business and Promote Cigarette Sales

Small business owners, especially retailers who sell nicotine products to adult consumers, must make their voices heard. 

SB 1102 is being misleadingly promoted as a public health measure to prevent youth access to vapor products. In truth, it effectively bans most vapor products, removing a critical nicotine alternative for adult smokers. Numerous studies have shown that  cigarette sales increase after the passage of state laws restricting the sale vapor products to adults.

Oklahoma's proposed certification process, based on failed federal PMTA regulations already facing legal challenge, is seen as unnecessary and harmful, adding excessive red tape that disadvantages small businesses while benefiting Big Tobacco by pushing out independent vapor product manufacturers and retailers
