The bill states that the passage of Californias law banning the sale of most flavored tobacco products resulted in a significant increase in seizure costs that have drastically affected the total number of inspections the CDTFA is able to complete. Democratic state assembly member Chris Rogers, who introduced the bill, said CDTFA is currently only able to visit 11% of tobacco retailers each year and, without additional funding from the state tobacco license, those inspection numbers will continue to decline. The increase of the tobacco retailer fee will make sure more retailers are inspected annually by the CDTFA, the bill states, and it adds that it would bolster compliance with the state flavored tobacco licensing and tax laws and the Stop Tobacco Access to Kids Enforcement Act. The California Fuels & Convenience Alliance (CFCA), which has advocated for the convenience-store industry since 1952 in California, told CSP Daily News that it is deeply disappointed that the governor signed this legislation
