It would be illegal to sell vaping products to minors under a pair of bills that won final passage in the state House of Representatives on Wednesday with wide bipartisan support.
The number of teenagers using vaping devices has increased significantly in the last year, according to a study done by the University of Michigan, which showed that 37.3% of 12th graders reported vaping in 2018 compared with 27.8% in 2017. More than 10% of eighth graders also said they had vaped nicotine in the last year. And reports of 12th graders vaping marijuana increased to 13.1% in 2018 compared with 9.5% in 2017.
“Our kids are not for sale,” said state Rep. Isaac Robinson, D-Detroit. “I hope the governor signs this bill so we can send a message that we need to keep vape products out of the hands of children.
