Good question. I think so, but let's ask. @mtbakervapor - what's the verdict, still moving?

Yes the move is still on. Inslee has made it clear that he will continue attacking the vaping industry and he still has a year left in office. We simply cannot risk having a new bill passed while we are still in the state and there is sure to be another proposal next year.

That being said, we're ecstatic to see the Washington State vaping community win this fight. Many of us went to Olympia to take part in the public hearings when HB 2211 and 1645 were first discussed and we will continue managing a B&M in Lynden, WA while our manufacturing arm operates in Arizona. We still love this state and want to do everything possible to help Washington vapers fight unjust legislation. The best case scenario for everyone involved is that no anti-vaping legislation is ever passed and that our move to Arizona ends up being nothing more than a defensive maneuver.

Well there we have it.

As sad as it is to see you all moving on, I certainly can understand the reasoning behind it. I appreciate everything you did in helping us squash it for the time being, and hope that the amount of support from everyday people will only grow as time goes on - the movement to keep unfair and unjust taxation and over-the-top penalties from ruining an entire industry needs to grow to numbers that simply cannot be silenced and ignored. More so than it is now.

Again, thank you for being an awesome company and for every ounce of effort that has been put forward in keeping vaping unrestricted.

Lastly, you're still going to rock the Hawks support from down south, right? RIGHT? Better see me some dusty 12th Man flags this upcoming season, hehehe
