Nicotine Product Tax Amendments

Summary

The bill increases the per‑cigarette tax to 11 cents and raises taxes on electronic cigarettes and non‑therapeutic nicotine devices. It also replaces the weight‑based tax on alternative nicotine products with a flat fee for pouch products and a sales‑price percentage for non‑pouch products. The extra revenue must go to the state’s General Fund, and a short‑term inventory tax is added for cigarettes affected by the hike.
