Rick Larsen not happy with Trump's reversal on flavored vape ban

EVERETT — A nondescript sweatshirt adds a new wrinkle in the fight against vaping, especially in schools.

The drawstrings on the black hoodie are mouthpieces connected to a vape pen in an easily concealed pocket, allowing a student to discreetly walk the halls with their head in the clouds.

The garment, in addition to a smartwatch that doubles as a vape device, were some of what was discussed Monday morning when U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen sat down at the Snohomish County Public Health District office in Everett with educators, health officials and state regulators to talk about vaping problems and policy.

“The only healthy option for vaping is to not vape,” Larsen said.

“Congress needs to take action on this public health crisis.”
