"I think any questions about the current state of policy really needs to be directed to the White House," Zeller said. "We are in a deliberative process. The White House made an announcement in September, and we are working to advance a policy consistent with taking steps to do everything that we can to protect kids from these products."
Zeller said all he can say is the administration is continuing to advance a policy to address youth e-cigarette use before again being cut off."There is no final answer as of now," Zeller responded.
