South Carolina Senate Proposes FDA to Create Approved Vape List
WACH reports rise in e-cigarette use among Columbia, South Carolina students, prompting calls for FDA action and penalties.

According to WACH, the issue of students using e-cigarettes on campus in Columbia, South Carolina is becoming increasingly serious. Senators Hutto and Thomas Alexander expressed their desire to create a list of approved e-cigarette products through the FDA and establish a penalty list for those who violate regulations.

 

State Senator Brad Hutto said, "Especially this year, school officials and resource officers have all said that this phenomenon is becoming rampant." School districts in the area are being forced to find new ways to combat the growing trend of students using e-cigarettes on campus, a problem Hutto believes should not exist in the first place. "They shouldn't be selling e-cigarette products to minors, yet these products are finding their way into schools and into the hands of children, to the point where some resource officers say they have to even station personnel in the bathrooms.

 

According to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the number of young people using illegally flavored e-cigarettes has surged by over 2000%.
