This bill aims to establish a legal framework addressing the purchase and possession of e-liquid and vapor products by minors in Arkansas. It introduces a new section to the Arkansas Code, specifically defining "e-liquid product" and "vapor product," and clarifying that a "minor" is anyone under the age of twenty-one, with an exception for military personnel. The bill makes it unlawful for minors to purchase or possess these products and outlines the responsibilities of law enforcement when seizing such items, mandating their destruction or disposal as contraband.

Violations of this law will result in penalties, including a fine of up to $100 or up to twenty hours of community service, or both. This legislative measure seeks to enhance public health protections by restricting access to nicotine-containing products among youth, thereby addressing concerns related to underage vaping and its associated health risks.
