A Parent Checklist for the Quiet Week

Parents for Stronger Vaping Restrictions says families need practical steps while Bill 208 is still waiting for a next public date.

What has changed this week

the Economic Future committee page was updated October 16 and still lists no scheduled meetings. Bill 208 has not disappeared, but parents should not wait for a meeting to use prevention tools.

Checklist for families

  • Ask schools what prevention resources they use.
  • Talk with teens about advertising and stress.
  • Know that under-18 possession and use rules exist.
  • Report suspicious sellers.
  • Watch for official committee updates.

Tools to ask about
