ERIE, PENNSYLVANIA: (HEADS UP!) 1st reading BANS VAPING OUTDOORS, with NO evidence of any risk to bystanders, in all 56 city parks, including 11 undeveloped and 12 non-playground parks. Possible 2nd read/vote on 9/4! Tell city council that laws should be evidenced-based!

COMMENTARY: (Rob Lyons, Sp!ked) Welcome to Prohibition 2.0! First they came for the smokers. Then the vapers. Then the soda drinkers and meat eaters. All OK because “it doesn’t affect ME.”

All ‘bad habits’ will soon be treated like smoking


COLUMBUS, INDIANA: (UPDATE) City voted 6-1 to include 60-day implementation period to allow Ordinance Review Committee to add vape shops to the list of exemptions. Not based on evidence, public vaping bans like this mislead the general public to believe vapor is a risk to bystanders.
