Rights 4 Vapers is a movement dedicated to advancing evidence-based regulations on vaping. We are an informal collection of committed volunteers who believe that vapers deserve to make an informed choice. We are guided by unpaid academic advisors.
Change is Overdue. The Safer Nicotine Summit is a step in the right direction. By bringing scientists, policymakers, businesses, and consumers together, the summit aims to craft a pragmatic, evidence-based framework: the Safer Nicotine Act.

Listening to Dr. Tyndall speak about his book is powerful and eye-opening. These sessions are open to everyone! So if you have friends, family, doctors, politicians, or regulators who still repeat the same old myths about vaping, encourage them to attend at least one.

Books will be available for purchase at the event—or bring your copy to have it signed!
