Defend MI Rights

Donation protected
On September 4, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer announced her intent to ban flavored vaping products in the state of Michigan…and, within hours, the DEFEND MI RIGHTS Coalition was formed. Obviously, any business could fight the Michigan flavor ban individually but DEFEND MI RIGHTS believes that there is strength in numbers and far more can be done to fight by pooling resources together.

Coalition members include Mister-E-Liquid, Wild Bill's Tobacco, Kalamazoo Vapor Shop, Ecig Outlet, 906 Vapor, Joost Vapor, and many others. DEFEND MI RIGHTS has hired the best-of-the-best in terms of attorneys, litigators, lobbyists and public relations. We also have constant representation in Lansing meeting daily with legislators requesting that action be taken to stop this ban.


One of the ways in which Defend MI Rights is fighting for your rights as a vaper is by filing a lawsuit against the Michigan state government, requesting an injunction against the governor’s emergency order. Lawsuits like this are expensive, though, and we need your help to continue the fight! Please give anything you can to help us fight this unconstitutional and ill-advised flavor ban. All of the money you give will go directly to our fight for vaper’s rights, and the immediate overturn of this unlawful ban.

And if you’re thinking, “This isn’t my state, this isn’t my fight,” please remember that what’s happening here will happen in other states next! If we don’t win this fight, here and now, you’re going to have to fight it where you are. Give now, and save having to fight later.



Thank you in advance for your support!
