Texas Rep Wants 10% Tax On E-Cigs, Vape Products

Texas State Capitol

A Texas representative is hoping to get a bill authorizing a ten-percent tax on e-cigarettes and vaping products passed before the end of the legislative session. Sugar Land Republican Representative Rick Miller says the bill would bring in over 20-million dollars per year starting in 2021. The cash would go to public schools. Miller tells The Dallas Morning News vaping and e-cigarettes are an epidemic and dangerous to the health of others. Similar legislation is in the Texas Senate.
