Biden's FDA clears path for Chinese products to flood US tobacco, nicotine market
Fox News
The FDA is under fire for allegedly caving to political pressure to ban vapes and e-cigarettes while simultaneously allowing Chinese products to flood the U.S. market.
While the FDA is cracking down on ENDS, it's also allowing illicit and unregulated products to flood the market — including from China. Aaron Kliegman is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital.
The FDA has sent hundreds of warning letters to companies marketing illegal e-cigarettes containing tobacco-derived nicotine, but it's unclear whether additional enforcement actions were taken. Reports have highlighted how vape companies regularly flout the FDA's orders and make, stock and sell illicit goods that can be seen at countless smoke shops and online retailers that aren't approved by the FDA.
