In her on CDC's "Tips from Former Smokers" anti-smoking campaign, Nancy Wride of Elements Behavioral Health made an interesting observation. On its web site describing a variety of possible strategies to quit smoking, the CDC does not list electronic cigarettes. Wride therefore asked the CDC why electronic cigarettes are not included on its web site as a potential smoking cessation aid.

Clearly, this requested action brings up significant issues under the Compact Clause, issues which certainly do not qualify for an exception from this clause under the Supreme Court's decision in United States Steel. (For a detailed discussion of how enforcing the MSA on electronic cigarette companies would violate the Compact Clause, see the excellent submitted by the Competitive Enterprise Institute in S&M Brands.)
