"As a lung-transplant surgeon, I’ve seen firsthand the dangers of these products. Young, healthy people who vaped have developed irreversible lung damage that doctors are still trying to fully understand." bit.ly/3gcNEmR
Great news! #SB248 by @NathanForTexas has passed the Texas Senate. This bipartisan bill helps tackle the youth vaping epidemic by closing the loophole that enables e-cigarette retailers to go unlicensed and unchecked and makes important updates to Texas tobacco laws #txlege
Support #SB248 by @NathanForTexas. The Tobacco 21 measure increased the minimum age to purchase tobacco & vape products to 21yrs. But Texas youth who vape are still vaping at epidemic levels. Funding for Tx DSHS tobacco youth prevention & cessation prgms needs to be protected.
Do you support or oppose adopting a State Tax on e-cigarettes & vaping products similar to the cigarette tax? The @hobbyschooluh's survey released today finds the adoption of a vaping & e-cigarette tax is supported by 84% of Texans. Full report: uh.edu/hobby/tx2021/ #txlege
Are you smoking to cope with stress or anxiety? Remember, getting help to quit is an important step you can take to feel better. Make your plan to quit smoking at CDC.gov/quit.
It's #WorldNoTobaccoDay! 🚭 Tobacco products kill over 8 million people every year. The industry is targeting youth to replace people that their products are killing so they can make a killing in profits 💰 📈. It’s time to #SpeakOut! #TobaccoExposed 👉 bit.ly/NoTobacco2020

This type of marketing worked for cigarettes, and ecigs follows the same plan. Our kids deserve better than this.
Restrictions on cartoon marketing for cigarettes & chewing #tobacco have been in place since 1999. No such restrictions apply to e-cigarettes. Study finds cartoon recognition is associated with susceptibility for future electronic cigarette use. ow.ly/bQsn30oVHnJ
Way to go, Texas! Thank you toto @RepJohnZerwas & @joanhuffman for sponsoring the bill and to everyone who was part of the @TexasTobacco21 coalition to raise the sale of tobacco products to 21 in Texas! #tobacco21 #txlege #NoTobacco
BREAKING: Gov. @GovAbbott today signed into law #SB21 to stop sale of cigarettes, e-cigarettes & other #tobacco products to Texans under 21, except for those in the military. Law takes effect Sept. 1. Our press release: facebook.com/texastobacco21… #tobacco21 #txlege
With this new law starting Sept. 1, we can protect our young people by minimizing their access to tobacco and vaping products. Thank you to all members of the @TexasTobacco21 coalition for making this happen! #txlege #NoTobacco #Tobacco21
We @MDAndersonNews extend our deepest appreciation to the authors of Texas' Tobacco 21 legislation -- @joanhuffman @RepJohnZerwas -- as well as @TexasTobacco21 and our Board of Visitors. We are grateful for your commitment to creating a healthier future for all Texans. #endcancer
Ban. These. Flavors
Cotton candy, cherry and watermelon sound like delicious summertime treats – but as flavors of smokeless #tobacco or electronic cigarettes, they’re dangerous. These kid-friendly flavors are how tobacco companies market their products to youth.

@EddieforTexas vote YES on SB 21 on Tuesday and help create a tobacco-free generation! #txlege #Tobacco21
Texas Senate-backed bill raising the legal age for cigarette, e-cig and other tobacco product sales to 21 is set for House debate today. But @RepJohnZerwas intends nonsubstantive tweaks that will require fresh Senate action—meaning the age bump doesn’t go to @GregAbbott_TX yet.
