The bill would
  * Impose a new excise tax on nicotine used in vaping and for other purposes, which has been extracted,
     concentrated, or synthesized, at a rate of $50.33 per 1,810 milligrams of nicotine
  * Make applicable to newly taxable nicotine the same provisions that apply to tobacco products, including
     packaging requirements; provisions relating to purchase, receipt, possession, or sale; and provisions relating
     to civil and criminal penalties
  * Subject manufacturers of newly taxable nicotine to the same occupational tax and other requirements that
     currently apply to manufacturers of tobacco products

Estimated budgetary effects would primarily stem from
  * The imposition of the new excise tax on nicotine


The Congressional Budget Act of 1974, as amended, stipulates that revenue estimates provided by the staff of the
Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) will be the official estimates for all tax legislation considered by Congress. As
such, CBO incorporates those estimates into its cost estimates of the effects of legislation. All of the estimates for
the provisions of H.R. 4742 were provided by JCT.
