VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: More tobacco sales suppression

U.S. Senate Vote to Curb Internet Tobacco Sales Is Victory for Kids and Taxpayers

The PACT Act will:

-- Require Internet sellers to pay all federal, state, local or Tribal
tobacco taxes and affix tax stamps before delivery to any customer;
-- Mandate that the age and identification of purchasers be checked at
purchase and at delivery;
-- Require Internet vendors to comply with state and local laws as if they
were located in the same state as their customers;
-- Provide federal and state enforcement officials with new tools to block
delivery of cigarettes and smokeless tobacco products that evade federal
or state laws; and
-- Ban the delivery of tobacco products through the U.S. mail.
