    No he isn't. He's calling on feds to crack down on teen use.
    What does that even mean? Is he gonna have feds in all 7-11s to
    insure no teen purchases?

    Works for cigarettes and beer, give or take.

    How about keeping teens from seeing Zyn products on tik-tok?
    How exactly will Chuckie manage that?
    He's being mocked for trying to find a problem he can use to divert attention from real problems....like Joe's open border.

    There's no evidence Republicans are trying to fix a non-existent "open
    border."

    Same rules in place. If they work...what's the problem?
    So far he's calling for study. What's the harm? I don't think anyone
    who isn't selling it wants minors to use nicotine.

    Odd that when I search, everyone says he wants a crackdown but no one
    quotes him as saying so.

    I'd be interested in a pot study but since the gov't has become the world largest drug dealer they have zero interest in cannabis induced psychosis
    in teens.

    https://ajp.psychiatryonline.org/doi/10.1176/appi.ajp.2021.21111126

    "Emerging evidence from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) of schizophrenia and lifetime cannabis use have questioned a causal
    inference for the observed relationship between cannabis and psychosis.
    These studies, recently summarized by Gillespie and Kendler (10), while acknowledging evidence for a bidirectional causal relationship between
    cannabis exposure and schizophrenia, suggest a greater role for “reverse-causal mechanisms” (where schizophrenia-related mechanisms lead
    to cannabis use) and “genetic confounding” (common underlying genetic
    risk for both schizophrenia and cannabis use), thus reinvigorating the long-standing debate on causality."

    The Trump WH did its part as the "world largest drug dealer":
