Petition to the German Parliament: 50,656 signatures

An international support was called against TPD by German vapers to have a chance to see their cause publicly defended in an open session of the German Parliament (“Bundestag”). The petition "Don’t implement Art 20 TPD!" exceeded the 50,000 signatures on January 18, 2016 thanks to the efficient support of the international vaping community.

The petition defended by German vapers against Art 20TPD and highlighted by the British website Vapers.org.uk has reached the quorum with more than 50,000 signatures to be publicly defended in an open session of the German Parliament (“Bundestag”).

The chances of getting that much support from the German vapers alone were scarce but the international community efficiently mobilized and achieved the goal in due time.

The mandatory registration on the German website didn’t deter the good-will of foreign participants for filling up the petition.
