Protesters in Mexico Rally Against Proposed E-cigarette Ban

Dec.11.2024
Protesters in Mexico Rally Against Proposed E-cigarette Ban
Mexican e-cigarette proponents protest Senate bill proposing ban and penalties, arguing for science-based regulations instead.

According to Reporte Indigo, on December 10th, Mexican e-cigarette product vendors and organizations supporting e-cigarettes gathered in front of the Senate to protest with the slogan "Ban the Ban!".


On Tuesday, the Mexican Senate will hold a full session to discuss and vote on a bill that would prohibit and punish activities related to e-cigarettes and the illegal use of fentanyl. Protesters argue that the proposal will lead to the formation of a black market and criminalize consumers.


The organizers emphasized that their goal is to make lawmakers listen to their voices and promote reasonable regulation based on scientific evidence, rather than a complete ban. Juan José Cirión Lee, chairman of Mexico and the World e-cigarette organization, pointed out that this measure is infringing on the human rights of users of these devices.


We are not only defending e-cigarettes, but also defending freedom.

The U.S. FDA will launch a pilot program to accelerate reviews of nicotine pouch products from Philip Morris International, Altria, BAT’s Reynolds American, and Turning Point Brands, aiming to complete the process by December 2025. The move, driven by pressure from the Trump administration, seeks to address past multi-year approval delays. Nicotine pouches, the fastest-growing U.S. smoking alternative, are seen as lower-risk but raise youth appeal concerns.
