Dear congressman/senator;I don’t know if you will even take my comments into regard, but I’m going to tell you how I feel. I had started smoking cigarettes iwhen I was 16 years old, and I quit in November of 2013. In the past 8-9 months I have started to feel better by an order of magnitude; my heart and lungs feel so much better. Don’t ask me how I can feel that my heart is better, but I can! I owe my life, two of my paternal aunts, two of my paternal uncles, and my father is working on quitting with the help of an electronic cigarette. I agree that there should be regulations that govern the labeling, ingredients, and use of child proof caps. What I dont agree on is Big Tobacco poking around in the legislation. I LOVE the fruity and candied flavored e-juice; it’s not just kids that like those flavors! I think the regulations that the FDA is trying to impose will not only HURT SMALL-BUSINESSES, but it will also endanger the health and well-being of millions of people that are in contact with first and second hand smoke. The ones I feel.bad for are the kids that have to sit in a car seat in the back of a car while their parents smoke with the windows up! I HAVE seen this happening, and I did not take kindly to it, and I definitly let the parents know. Please don’t let the FDA impose these regulations upon us. Please show them how you feel about these ludicrous regulations by voting against these regulations. These regulations WILL prevent the small-businesses from creating new and exciting flavors and devices to vape these flavors. These small-businesses absolutely do not have the funds to afford the approval paperwork that the FDA is unjustly trying to impose. This will put e-cigs into the hands of Big Tobacco. I think that Big Tobacco definitly has their hands in this legislation… I have seen the Netflix series House of Cards, and I know how these kind of things work. Please help me live a long and prosperous rest of my life. Inposing these regulations WILL cause people to buy juices/devices from out of China on the blackmarket, which will be very dangerous as we’ve seen the problems with consumables coming out of China being tainted with toxic chemicals and heavy metals. It will cause people to start making D.I.Y. e-juices, and with any D.I.Y. project that is done by an inexperienced person there is a high chance of error. People that have no compounding experience can and ultimately will mess up proportions. If the mistake 2.4% for 24 mg/ml or vice-versa, they can get very sic from a nicotine overdose. Also if they dont take the proper safety procedures/precautions they could get nicotine poisoning from the nicotine freebase being absorbed through their skin, or droplets/spills could cause a case of secondary exposure to other individuals within their household. There will also be a percentage of the vaping population will start making their own devices (e-cigs) without knowing proper battery safety, circuits, and Ohm’s law. This can lead to catastrophic battery failures much easier than with a device that is safely manufactured/tested by professionals in a facility.Please take the words I have said in the previous section into consideration. I would greatly apperciate it, and so would my family; because I’m sure they would like to see me grow up. I would also love to be around long enough to see my new baby neice grow up.Sincerely,Andrew Delashaw
