AI Summary

This bill, known as the Preventing Online Sales of E-Cigarettes to Children Act, amends the Jenkins Act to apply the same requirements for delivery sales of cigarettes to the delivery sales of electronic nicotine delivery systems (e-cigarettes). It defines "electronic nicotine delivery system" and requires the United States Postal Service to promulgate regulations to clarify the applicability of the prohibition on mailing cigarettes to e-cigarettes. The bill aims to prevent the online sale of e-cigarettes to children by extending existing restrictions on the delivery sales of cigarettes to these new nicotine delivery products.
