Proposition EE would create a tax on nicotine products such as electronic cigarettes, (e-cigarettes, also known as vaping devices) and increase cigarette and tobacco taxes.

Of the amount allocated for that, 27 percent must be distributed to local governments and the remainder used for general state spending.
