The Economic Impact of Vaping
The Vapor Industry Creates Jobs and Economic Activity in States and Congressional Districts Across The Country
The nicotine vapor industry is a dynamic part of the U.S. economy, accounting for about $22.09 billion in output or about 0.10 percent of GDP. It employs approximately 133,573 Americans who earned wages and benefits of about $7 billion.
Members of the industry and their employees paid $2.83 billion in federal, state and local taxes. This does not include state and local sales taxes or excise taxes that may apply for specific retail purchases which are estimated to total $1.88 billion.

VTA is proud to advocate for a well-regulated, legal, open market that allows consumers to choose which products succeed – not unelected bureaucrats.
Pennsylvanians, make your voices heard and protect small businesses across the state. Contact your lawmakers today: https://vaportechnology.org/action-center/#/53
Freedom of choice is a distinctly American principle. Why is @FDAtobacco forcing @CBP to deprive American adults of the freedom to choose the flavored vaping products they want to use?
The vaping industry deserves the same opportunity as every other American industry: to compete in a well-regulated, legal marketplace.
By refusing to authorize a wide variety of flavored vaping products, @DrMakaryFDA and @FDAtobacco are refusing to save the lives of the nearly 500,000 Americans who die each year from smoking-related illnesses.
VTA’s members are the small vape shops contributing millions to the American economy. We’re focused on ensuring they’re able to thrive. Join us today to support our efforts:
We must protect kids while ensuring adults’ access to the most successful smoking cessation tools available on the market.
The vaping industry deserves the chance to thrive, something that can only be achieved with streamlined, science-based regulations.
VTA’s Executive Director, Tony Abboud, appeared on @jfradioshow this morning to talk about the need for @DrMakaryFDA and @FDAtobacco to stop forcing @CBP to seize flavored vapes.
The vapor industry contributes $17.5 billion to the American economy under the broken PMTA process. Imagine the contributions this industry could make if it were allowed to thrive.
With the right regulatory system, the U.S. vaping industry can thrive – ensuring the industry’s positive economic impact will continue to add American jobs and investment.
It should be up to the consumers to decide which products succeed in the marketplace - not unelected @FDAtobacco bureaucrats.
VTA is proud to advocate on behalf of the U.S. vaping industry, which is focused on helping adults quit smoking cigarettes and switch to a healthier alternative.
The American vaping industry is driven by small businesses across the country that simply want clarity. @DrMakaryFDA, it’s time to work together to create transparent regulations that protect adult access to vaping products and keep our kids safe.
Pennsylvanians, stand up in support of American small businesses across your state. Make your voice heard today:
The impact of regulations on small businesses can be devastating when authorities act cluelessly. Scientific assessments and reports can mask a lack of understanding, leading to chaos. "They don't know what they're dealing with." #SmallBusiness #Regulation
VTA is proud to support the American vaping industry: championing American businesses, American jobs, and American innovation.
It’s time to give the vaping industry the same opportunity that every other American entrepreneur wants – a free, fair, and well-regulated marketplace that lets consumers decide winners and losers, not the government.
Vaping products are scientifically proven to be the most effective smoking cessation tools on the market. By continuing to implement broken Biden regulations, @DrMakaryFDA is driving Americans back to a significantly more dangerous alternative – cigarettes.
Make a Difference
At VTA, we’re committed to protecting American small businesses from unfair federal overreach. We need you NOW to keep the pressure on to save flavored vaping. Now is the time to join the fight to save vaping!
