Heated tobacco products (HTPs) and other nicotine alternatives are designed to reduce exposure to harmful toxicants by eliminating combustion—the primary driver of smoking-related disease.

Yet, public policy has been slow to reflect that distinction.

President Donald Trump’s sweeping AI executive order marks a decisive shift in who writes the rules for artificial intelligence in the United States. Rather than allowing states to continue experimenting with their own AI frameworks, the order asserts federal primacy—aiming to replace a growing patchwork of state laws with a single national approach.
