"Illegal Chinese vapes are showing up in our schools, our neighborhoods, and our homes every single day. Moms are fed up, and we’re taking action to stop these products from targeting our kids."
Moms for America Actions says it will "mobilize moms" to "advocate for stronger enforcement, accountability for foreign manufacturers, and protections for children and families."
In the press release, the group points out that many illicit Chinese vapes are "deliberately designed" to appeal to children and says that will be a main focus of their campaign’s pushback.
"This is not an accident; it’s by design," Stack explained. "China has built a billion-dollar industry on addicting American kids to illegal products that have no place in our communities. Moms are fed up, and we fully support the Trump Administration’s aggressive actions to shut down this black market."

China’s vape industry is estimated at $28 billion, and despite federal restrictions, government data indicates that two-thirds of its products reach U.S. consumers. More than 80 percent of vapes sold nationwide are illicit and not authorized for sale.
"President Trump’s actions send a clear message: profiting off the addiction of our children will not be tolerated," Stack said. "Moms want safe communities, honest enforcement of the law, and leaders who put American families first. We are committed to making sure these dangerous products are removed from our schools and neighborhoods for good."
