Cole and Bishop Introduce The FDA Deeming Authority Clarification Act of 2017
“While there is disagreement about whether certain tobacco products should be regulated or not, there should be agreement that new regulations should apply to products moving forward, and not retroactively,” said Cole. “Inconsistent authority like this will be detrimental and unfair to many manufacturers and businesses. This legislation preserves the FDA’s ability to regulate these products on part with cigarettes, grandfathers currently available products and then requires the FDA’s approval before any new product is introduced.”

The VTA goes on to further explain what this means:
WASHINGTON, DC – Today, the Vapor Technology Association (VTA) issued the following
statement in support of bipartisan legislation introduced by Representatives Tom Cole (ROK)
and Sanford Bishop (D-GA) that would modify the predicate date for e-cigarettes and
provide much needed regulation of vapor products as the technology that they are rather
than the tobacco products that they are not.
