VTA launched its Voices for Vaping initiative in 2018 to amplify the voices for vaping in defense of vapor products and to increase awareness of how vapor helps adult smokers quit deadly cigarettes.  Now, VTA is taking the fight to the next level by combining the power of businesses and consumers into the strongest vapor advocacy association defending your right to vape and sell vapor products.

UNIQUE BENEFITS OF BEING AN INDIVIDUAL MEMBER OF VTA

1. LOBBYING.  By joining, you will immediately be part of the vapor community’s most sophisticated and established lobbying effort to protect your right to vape.  VTA has lobbied in Washington, D.C. for the past 5 years and, in the past two years, VTA lobbied in 40 state capitals defending vapor.  The impact of businesses and individual consumers fighting side-by-side guided by professional lobbying teams cannot be overstated. 
2. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER. Because VTA is on the ground in D.C. and in the state capitals, we provide our members the most up-to-date information on all things vapor.  We know, and therefore you know, precisely if and when you need to activate. If so, you’ll have access to our sophisticated call to action technology.  No more wasted emails or phone calls! 
3. WINNING ADVOCACY CAMPAIGNS.  VTA has put together some of the vapor community’s most successful and impactful advocacy campaigns, including the successful “I Am Not An Anecdote!” campaign and the Fall 2019 campaign to save flavors. VTA put together the vapor community’s Voices for Vaping initiative and launched the first television advertisements which helped stop the federal flavor ban.  Your membership will tie you directly into these opinion shaping campaigns and make sure that your voice is heard. 
4. UNPRECEDENTED CONSUMER ENGAGEMENT WITH MEDIA.  VTA believes that consumers – the actual Voices for Vaping – will make all the difference in the ongoing fight to save vapor.  Knowing that “all politics is local,” VTA has invested in new technology that will link your voice directly with media in your community.   
5. DISCOUNTS.  Joining VTA will give you access to discounts on vapor products from participating stores around the country.  Check with your local shops or check out our website for shops near you to see who is participating.  VTA has the largest network of vape shop members but any store can sign up to participate.
