Melania Trump remains committed to preventing children from using e-cigarettes, the first lady's office says, even as President Trump is reportedly putting political considerations ahead of his previously announced plan to ban flavored e-cigarettes
The first lady was an essential part of the announcement by Trump and Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar in September, during a meeting in front of the media in the Oval Office, in which the President stated there would be new"very strong recommendations" to ban the use of flavored e-cigarettes. Additionally, the Food and Drug Administration was expected to issue new and more complex guidelines for e-cigarette sales.
The first lady's statement doesn't explicitly contradict any Trump administration stance, but it highlights potential tension between the President and first lady on the issue.
