E-cigarettes have been under attack in many states in the US. This attack came to Washington with some of the harshest regulations in the nation. These bills (one senate, and one house) SB5573 and HB1564 have threatened those who use e-cigarettes with higher taxes (95%), reduced flavor selection, and banning online sales to any Washington resident, to name a few.
Many e-cigarette uses have switched over from smoking, even though e-cigarettes are not marketed as smoking cessation products. If these new regulations become a reality, it is entirely possible that many e-cigarette users will switch back to smoking.
The information that is out there needs to be sorted through. Figure out what you can, and learn for yourself what e-cigarettes are and how they work. Below are some resources to help inform the uninformed:

5 months after quitting smoking, with the help of e-cigs. Why all the attacks? Almost seems like our government wants to keep us hooked.
