This Tuesday, the Mexican Chamber of Deputies approved constitutional reforms that completely ban the use of vapes and electronic cigarettes in the country.
With 324 votes for and 129 against, legislators – with an official majority – approved the opinion resulting from an initiative sent by Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum.
The initiative reforms the general health law “on the prohibition of electronic cigarettes, vapers and other similar systems or devices”, and establishes sentences of up to eight years in prison for its sale.
