Prohibit sale of electronic smoking devices without a child safety feature
This bill prohibits the retail sale of electronic smoking devices (like e-cigarettes) without a child safety feature, such as a lock or password, starting from its effective date. It directly affects retailers selling these devices in Nebraska, requiring all new devices to include such safety measures to prevent accidental access by children. Violating this rule would be a Class IV misdemeanor. The law does not apply to interstate shipping or warehouse storage of these products.
