It imposes a tax on electronic cigarettes at 15% of the wholesale price and on other tobacco products at varying rates based on the sale date. Distributors and retailers must obtain licenses, and tax revenues are allocated to specific state funds. The bill also updates definitions and tax rates for little cigars and moist snuff.
