RELATING TO TOBACCO PRODUCTS.

Beginning 7/1/2026, amends existing law regarding preemption of local ordinances and regulations regulating the sale of cigarettes, tobacco products, and electronic smoking devices as a matter of statewide concern to clarify that the State's preemption power extends solely to the taxation of cigarettes, tobacco products, and electronic smoking devices and allows counties to adopt ordinances and regulations that regulate smoking or the sale of cigarettes, tobacco products, and electronic smoking devices that do not conflict with and are more stringent than the state law that governs smoking. Prohibits the counties from enacting an ordinance or a regulation that imposes a fee or tax on the sale of cigarettes, tobacco products, or electronic smoking devices. Effective 7/1/3000. (HD2)
