Full Questionnaire text can be found here. All answers are verbatim with the exception that explanations that started with a lower case letter were capitalized.
Question 1: Do you support legislation that would create a strong fully funded, comprehensive tobacco retail licensing system in Michigan that includes strong enforcement and penalties on violators?
Question 2- Do you support simplifying the taxation rate to a uniform rate of 32% that covers all tobacco products?
Question 3- Do you support legislation that would reduce or eliminate ineffective Purchase, Use and Possession laws?
Nancy DeBoer: No. I do not believe in committing to an exact dollar amount for any funding each and every year, as things can change. However, I am fully supportive of funding whatever we can do to minimize the use of tobacco products and vaping etc on the entire population, especially our youth.
