Washington Smoke Free Association – Protecting Your Rights, Defending Your Business
Legislative Update
Update May 19, 2026
WASFA is working with lawmakers to obtain an Attorney General's Opinion to contest the 98% tax. To date, the Vapor Tax RCW has not been amended and the new tax only is in place as a result of the interpretation from the Department of Revenue.
Please stay tuned for more information as this process can take some time.

WASFA Government Affairs
Since the formation of the Washington Smoke-Free Association (WASFA) and the strategic engagement of professional lobbyists, we have achieved a flawless track record of success. WASFA has consistently stood firm against Big Tobacco's attempts to undermine our industry, defeating every vapor-related bill proposed in the past five years. Our victories are made possible because 100% of membership donations go directly towards advocacy efforts. However, we need as much support as possible to continue protecting and advancing the vapor industry in Washington State. We invite you to join us in our ongoing fight to ensure our industry thrives and serves our community.
