S.T.O.P. Illicit Vapes Act
The S.T.O.P. Illicit Vapes Act establishes a federal multi-agency task force to combat the illegal importation, distribution, and sale of e-cigarettes. Co-chaired by the Attorney General and Health Secretary, the task force includes representatives from agencies like the FDA, Customs and Border Protection, and the FBI, and must meet monthly to coordinate enforcement efforts. It will submit semiannual reports to Congress detailing agency actions against illicit e-cigarette operations and recommend improvements to address public health concerns. The task force is set to expire 10 years after its establishment.
