Summary

The legislation changes the tax rate applied to the wholesale price of tobacco and nicotine items—such as cigars, smokeless tobacco, e‑liquids and nicotine pouches—from 30% to 50%. It also increases the compensating use tax that distributors, wholesalers, retailers and consumers must pay. The measure excludes cigarettes, moist snuff and liquid nicotine, which remain taxed under separate laws.
