we don’t let kids smoke and they shouldn’t vape nicotine either.

To be clear, we don't ban children from consuming these products. We ban the sale of nicotine products to children. By anyone. The federal government didn't come in and ban Marlboro.

It’s why we regulate gambling, and why we should regulate sugary drinks too.

Regulations creating rules of behavior that apply to all actors. Not just making a law saying people aren't allowed inside the Bellagio.

The difference is super important. Laws need to be applied equally.
