Child Nicotine Poisoning Prevention Act, Vaping Industry Regulation
The U.S. House passed the Child Nicotine Poisoning Prevention Act, requiring childproof packaging for liquid nicotine.

This could effectively ban open-system vaping and "bathtub" juice makers, forcing the industry into a closed-cartridge model similar to printer ink or gaming consoles.
