Bill > HB205

This bill aims to prohibit the sale, possession, or purchase of flavored tobacco products in New Mexico. It defines "flavored tobacco product" as any tobacco product that contains an ingredient, substance, chemical, or compound (other than tobacco, water, or reconstituted tobacco sheet) that imparts a distinguishable taste or aroma during processing, manufacture, or packaging. The bill imposes penalties, including misdemeanor charges and fines, for violating these provisions. It also amends existing laws to restrict the sale of tobacco products through vending machines and requires retailers to display signage informing customers that it is illegal for anyone to purchase flavored tobacco products.
