A BILL FOR AN ACT
Relating to Smoking.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. The legislature finds that tobacco use is the single most preventable cause of disease, disability, and death in the United States. Tobacco use continues to be a problem in Hawaii, causing approximately one thousand four hundred deaths per year among adults. An estimated twenty-one thousand children in Hawaii currently under the age of eighteen will ultimately die prematurely from smoking. Tobacco use poses a heavy burden on Hawaii's health care system and economy. Each year, smoking costs approximately $526,000,000 in direct health care expenditures and $387,300,000 in lost productivity in the State. Raising the cost of tobacco wholesaler or dealer licenses and retail tobacco permits will help to offset the costs to the State that result from smoking and tobacco use.
The legislature further finds that tobacco products are addictive and inherently dangerous, causing many different types of cancer, heart disease, and other serious illnesses. Hawaii has a substantial interest in reducing the number of individuals of all ages who use tobacco products, and a particular interest in protecting adolescents from nicotine dependence and the illnesses and premature death associated with tobacco use.
The legislature additionally finds that electronic smoking devices, also known as e-cigarettes, are battery-operated products designed to deliver nicotine, flavor, and other chemicals to the user by turning chemicals, including highly addictive nicotine, into an aerosol that is inhaled by the user. Consumers may choose varying nicotine strengths of e-liquid as well as various liquids consisting of different flavors.
The electronic smoking device industry, including the production of e‑liquids, is growing rapidly. On December 18, 2018, the United States Surgeon General made the unprecedented move of classifying the danger of youth usage of electronic smoking devices as an epidemic. Since the Surgeon General first issued a warning in 2016 about the dangers of these products, data has shown a historic rise in use by youth and young adults. According to the 2016 report from the Surgeon General, e-cigarette use among the nation's youth and young adults has become a major public health concern. The Surgeon General's report noted that e-cigarette use has increased considerably in recent years, growing an astounding nine hundred per cent among high school students from 2011 to 2015. In a 2018 study conducted by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, the use of electronic smoking devices by teens increased nationally from 27.8 per cent to 37.3 per cent in a twelve month period. The increase translates to 1,300,000 more teens using electronic smoking devices in a single year. E‑cigarette use among youth and young adults is also strongly associated with the use of other tobacco products, including combustible tobacco products. Toxicologists have also warned that e-liquids pose significant risks to public health, particularly to children. According to the Surgeon General's report, if the contents of refill cartridges or bottles are consumed, ingestion of e-liquids containing nicotine can cause acute toxicity and possibly death. The Surgeon General's report also found that there are numerous policies and practices that can be implemented at the state and local levels to address electronic smoking device use among youth and young adults, including preventing access to e‑cigarettes by youth, significant increases in tax and price of e-cigarettes, retail licensure, and regulation of e-cigarette marketing.
In response to the growing use of electronic smoking devices, the legislature established a system of registration and regulation for sellers of electronic smoking devices and e-liquid through Act 206, Session Laws of Hawaii 2018. The legislature finds that the rapid growth of the electronic smoking device industry, including retail businesses selling electronic smoking devices or e-liquids, necessitates further regulations to protect consumers.
The legislature notes that the federal Food and Drug Administration recently finalized a rule that expands its regulatory authority to all tobacco products, including electronic smoking devices, cigars, and hookah and pipe tobacco. However, the legislature also notes that there is currently no state tobacco tax attached to e-liquid, even though electronic smoking devices are now regulated in a manner similar to tobacco products. Research has shown that increasing cigarette prices, such as through cigarette taxes, tends to reduce the rate of cigarette smoking by adult and youth smokers. However, the legislature is concerned that as the price of cigarettes increases, smokers may purchase less expensive smoking products, such as electronic smoking devices or e‑liquids, if these products are not taxed at a similar rate.
Finally, the legislature concludes that there must be a tax on e-liquids. Taxing these products in a manner similar to other non-cigarette or cigar tobacco products is the most equitable way to calculate that tax amount. Imposing a tax on e-liquids will also encourage users of e-liquids to quit and to sustain cessation, prevent youth initiation, and reduce consumption among those who continue to use them.
The purpose of this Act is to:
(1) Transfer from the department of the attorney general to the department of taxation the authority to tax, license, and regulate retailers of electronic smoking devices in a manner consistent with the taxation, regulation, and permitting of tobacco products;
(2) Impose a new excise tax on e-liquids and electronic smoking devices in a manner consistent with existing excise taxes on tobacco products;
(3) Increase the fee for tobacco wholesaler and dealer licenses;
(4) Increase the retail tobacco permit fee;
(5) Fund health education and prevention programs to reduce the use of electronic smoking devices; and
(6) Repeal the electronic smoking device retailer registration unit established in the attorney general's office by Act 206, Session Laws of Hawaii 2018.
SECTION 2. Chapter 245, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by adding a new part to be appropriately designated and to read as follows:
