Act 135, passed in 2014, extends secondhand smoke protections in workplaces, motor vehicles, public places, on school grounds, and in child care settings. The law also took a first step in protecting children from e-cigarette liquid poisonings by requiring child-proof packaging.

Secondhand Smoke Protection and What it Means for Families
Clean Indoor Air and Act 108
Act 108, passed in 2016, further strengthens the state’s Clean Indoor Act and offers more protection for Vermonters, including exposures from e-cigarette secondhand smoke. Vermont was one of the first states to pass a comprehensive Clean Indoor Air Act that banned lit tobacco products in nearly all common areas of indoor “places of public access.”
Act 108 enhances the law by restricting the use of e-cigarettes or other vaping devices, defined as tobacco substitutes, wherever smoking is prohibited. Vermont is one of the first 10 states to include e-cigarettes in its Clean Indoor Act.
