Second Trump Administration’s Pivot On Vaping Leads To Resignations

Top FDA and HHS officials resigned amid a dispute over the Trump administration's support for fruit-flavored vapes.

The move marks a sharp break from earlier Trump-era efforts to restrict flavored e-cigarettes.

Supporters frame the policy as harm reduction and wider adult access, while critics warn it could boost youth nicotine addiction.

The shift raises fresh public-health concerns as regulators weigh flavored vapes and other nicotine products.
