Vape shops across NY abruptly closed down today while “essential” and deadly combustible cigarettes remain available at 20k+ retailers.
@BuffaloPoliceNy shut down the @wnyvapor shop today and I fear for the thousands that we help to stay smoke free...

@bradhoylman, a NYS Senator, thinks that we need to ban flavored vaping because of #COVID19
So I ask, Do you have reason to believe that tobacco flavored e-cigarettes are corona-free? Or is this your “pack-a-day keeps corona away” prescription plan? #quitlying#wevapewevote
Mounting evidence shows a link between tobacco use and vaping and increased risk for COVID-19.
It's time for New York to ban all flavored e-liquid and e-cigarettes.
@NYGovCuomo and @GovWhitmer were already risking a huge death toll with their LIES and failed bans of life-saving vapor products.
With recent bogus efforts to falsely conflate youth #vaping with #COVID19 during a pandemic, should we now assume that death is part of their agenda?
@realDonaldTrump should #firetheSG for botching the investigation into life-saving vapor products, then botching the corona reaction, then trying to blame the two issues on each other with NO FREAKING EVIDENCE! The American People can no longer trust this CROOK! #vapingsaveslives
@bradhoylman So ban vaping but leave cigarettes available? Oh yeah, the kids are gonna need a smoke after their BOOZE ICE CREAM perhaps? You are a shameful politician, and I hope you get voted out for your hypocrisy. #wevapewevote#quitlying
“Open PM” to @NYSMom4Kiddos and @ParentsvsVape (Part 4)
A flavor ban will close my responsible small retail store and I’ll be replaced by drug dealers and Uber drivers who have no concern for laws, our children, selling safe products or ANYTHING except money. #vapingsaveslives
“Open PM” to @NYSMom4Kiddos and @ParentsvsVape (Part 1)
As adults and parents, we need a dialogue that supports both sides here. Heavily restricted access to flavored vapor products is key. Adult only facilities that scan IDs, like liquor stores or recreational marijuana stores
“Open PM” to @NYSMom4Kiddos and @ParentsvsVape (Part 3)
Unregulated black market THC products are what caused vaping lung diseases and deaths (EVALI) and it will be catastrophic to public health to force the billion dollar vapor industry (in NY state alone) to go underground.
@NYSMom4Kiddos @Agent4MassGov @Lollylulubes God Bless You Erin. I PM’d you as you requested. If you want to discuss a middle-ground where we can keep flavored vapes accessible to adult smokers and ALL vapes COMPLETELY off-limits to our youth, I’m VERY interested in that conversation.
I’m confused @NYSMom4Kiddos
Are you working hard to show other parents how to keep THEIR kids from “evil vaping” or are you just making a job out of the fact that you can’t stop your own children from vaping?
Maybe I’ll start “Parents Against Kids Lying About Doing Homework”
@NYGovCuomo riding #COVID19 to re-election, but vapers won’t forget his lies. Castor oil???? Really bro? Who made that bullshit up??? Was it @NYSMom4Kiddos? Or maybe it was that lying @AmericanCancer society???
When we recover from this coronavirus, I hope we cure #cuomovirus
I heard that I aired again today on PBS in Syracuse. I want to thank @WCNYCONNECTED for presenting a fair and balanced look at the #vaping debate.
