Prohibiting the sale of certain tobacco and nicotine products.

SB 5183 bans the sale of all flavored tobacco and nicotine products (like fruit or candy-flavored cigarettes, cigars, or e-cigarettes) and vapor products with interactive gaming features (e.g., Pac-Man displays) in Washington starting January 1, 2026. It directly affects retailers who sell these products, including those marketing to youth with appealing flavors and games. The bill defines "flavored" broadly to include any taste, smell, or cooling sensation beyond tobacco, and "entertainment vapor products" as devices with gaming or video features. This policy change aims to reduce youth initiation and addiction by removing products specifically designed to appeal to young people, based on public health data showing flavored products drive most youth tobacco use.
