Electronic cigarette advocates from New Yorkers for Smarter Smoking Alternatives (NYSSA) and supporters gather at City Hall in New York on Thursday, February 26, 2015 to protest attempts by New York State to impose taxes and regulations on electronic cigarettes. The activists feel that electronic cigarettes are a completely different product from tobacco and oppose a ban on indoor use and excessive taxation. The alternative to smoking releases water vapor and is advertised as safer, being tobacco-free. (© Richard B. Levine)
