CASAA’s May 2016 Newsletter is coming soon, but, we wanted to make sure our members had some important information and engagement opportunities at their fingertips while we work out the finishing touches.
Here’s what you need to know for Friday, May 20th, 2016:
A real petition that needs your participation:
Del. Larry Faircloth (R-WV) has proven himself as a valuable and effective advocate for vapor products in West Virginia. Now, in the wake of the FDA deeming regulations, he is taking his talent and legislative experience to lawmakers in D.C.
Please take action NOW by signing Del. Faircloth’s petition — which will be hand delivered to specific lawmakers — and support his effort to stand up to the FDA’s overreaching and disastrous regulations on vapor products.
Last month, we alerted members to a survey produced by Dr. Christopher Russell, Senior Research Fellow at the Centre for Substance Use Research. The information gathered will help present to regulators, academics, and medical professionals a more accurate picture about how people are using vapor products and contribute to the conversation about how vaping can benefit public health. Dr. Russell is still collecting data and hopes to make this the largest survey of its kind — the more data the better!
This week, CASAA updated our engagement in support of a change to the predicate date for products newly deemed to be tobacco by the FDA. We have made a slight adjustment to the letter we are asking members to send lawmakers to include support for both HR 2058 and the Cole-Bishop amendment. Please see our updated post here for more details. If you have not already taken action on this issue, please take a moment today to send a message to your lawmakers urging them to update the predicate date for vapor products.
Since the FDA deeming regulations were published for public inspection on May 5th, we’ve been reviewing multiple legislative and legal challenges to the rules. CASAA has joined with other groups in a coalition to explore all of these options as well as PR strategies. We are committed to combining our efforts to fight this battle on multiple fronts. This is an intensive process and, given the high stakes, we are thoroughly considering all viable pathways to challenging the FDA’s deeming regulations.
We are all aware of the desire for quick and decisive action in this matter. However, one hasty decision or poorly worded statement can create problems down the line. It is vital that any action is fully considered before being executed. A well-crafted and focused effort has the best chance for success. It is time to act with purpose, not react emotionally.
Some Good News
On Wednesday, May 18th, Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI), chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, sent a letter to Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Robert Califf raising concerns about the agency’s recent e-cigarette regulation, which could create undue burdens on small businesses and lead to negative unintended health consequences. We will continue to update you as this effort progresses. You can view the letter here.
If you are on Twitter, please also take a moment to retweet Sen. Johnson’s message to the FDA. Feel free to ask the @US_FDA and @FDAtobacco to respond in your own words — politely — and use the hashtag #AnswerRonJohnson
AbillionLivesFilm World Premiere a Huge Success!!!
World Premiere Recap
What an amazing night. Wow.
Thank you to DocEdge for hosting us. Thank you to AlfaLiquid for the fantastic after-party & publicity help. Thank you to NZVapor.com for supporting the red carpet pre-party.
One angry lady emailed members of parliament to complain that we were up partying until 3AM and that a vapor liquid company (AlfaLiquid) sponsored a party.
Now that our film is done, we’ll celebrate with anyone…especially those using vapor technology to save their life. There is nothing wrong with celebrating our film bringing the truth to millions.
It’s time for “health leaders” to focus on the facts and stop diverting attention away from the truth.
Moving Forward
The world premiere went so well, we just got an invitation from the Melbourne Documentary Film Festival to host our Australian Premiere on July 10th. We’re thrilled! Contact MDFF for tickets.
Next stop on our premiere tour, we’ll be heading to Warsaw’s Palace of Culture on June 16th for our European Premiere before the Global Forum on Nicotine. We’re really honored to show the movie to leading scientists, policy makers, health leaders, and media. Contact GFN for tickets.
What about North America?
People have contacted us to support large-scale premieres in Los Angeles, Dallas, Milwaukee, Paris, Toronto, Washington DC, and St. Louis. A premiere event that will attract the attention of media and policy makers is very expensive, so we appreciate all the help. We don’t have the billions like Big Pharma.
We need to do this together…and we need to do it the right way.
Not a bad response. Our last letter from Mr. Heck was not as helpful in it’s body text.
Where as this letter response to HR2058 is an improvement over our last communication.
We feel strongly, that the Republican party is fond of the Vaping Community.
As opposed to the obvious stanceby the democratic party to dismantle/destroy vaping .
This year our party agenda takes a backseat.
Regardless of our party, the party in favor, seemingly Republicans, will get VapeSling LLC support at the elections in November 2016.
KEEP GOING VapersArmy!!!

Dear Mr. Gonzalez,
Thank you for contacting me to share your concerns with new rules issued by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to regulate the e-cigarette industry. I share your concerns, which is why I cosponsored H.R. 2058, the FDA Deeming Authority Clarification Act, to prevent this rule from taking effect.
As you know, the FDA recently issued rules creating new regulatory authority over new tobacco products, including e-cigarettes. I share your concerns with these regulations and how they may affect electronic tobacco production. In recent years, electronic cigarettes have become increasingly popular alternatives to traditional tobacco products, especially for use related to smoking cessation.
I agree that we must strike a balance between improving market safety and maintaining access to a competitive and growing marketplace. That is why I cosponsored H.R. 2058, the FDA Deeming Authority Clarification Act. This bill will prevent the FDA’s new rules from impacting Nevadans’ access to e-cigarette products by amending the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to change the grandfather date for new tobacco products thereby exempting many e-cigarettes from this unnecessary regulation. H.R. 2058 will remove regulatory burdens and provide for a certain effective date with respect to deemed tobacco products. H.R. 2058 was referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce. While I do not serve as a member of this committee, please be assured that I will support H.R. 2058 should it be considered by the full House of Representatives.
Again, I appreciate your thoughts and it is an honor to serve you in Congress. Your suggestions are always welcome, and if ever I may be of assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.
