NM health agency says adult cigarette use down as vaping rises. Posted Monday, June 1, 2026 10:24 am Source NM Staff While cigarette use has declined in New Mexico, the state health department reported on Friday that residents are vaping more, "trading one public health risk for another," according to a news release. Between 2022 and 2024, the percentage of New Mexico adults smoking cigarettes dropped from 15% to 11.7%, while the use of e-cigarettes increased from 7.3% to 8.2% during the same time period. However, both cigarette and vaping use have dropped among high school students during recent years: from 8.3% in 2019 to 3.3% in 2023 for cigarettes, and from 33.4% to 18.8% in the same time period for e-cigarettes. Middle school students' smoking of e-cigarette use also dropped from 15.1% in 2019 to state health officials characterized as a "record low" of 10.4% in 2023. "New Mexicans have made progress quitting smoking, but it remains a significant public health problem," NMDOH's Nicotine Use Prevention and Control office Director Anthony Garcia said in a statement. "More people are vaping, especially youth, because it's sold as a safer choice to cigarettes, but e-cigarettes contain toxic chemicals linked to cancer along with brain, cardiovascular, and respiratory harm." The agency cited data from the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids that says tobacco use kills approximately 2,600 New Mexicans each year and causes close to 24% of cancer deaths in the state. State lawmakers on the interim Tobacco Settlement Revenue Oversight Committee met last week to discuss more comprehensive strategies for tackling youth nicotine use. In March, state Attorney General Raúl Torrez announced a lawsuit against Circle K and other retailers that sell vapes, accusing them of selling vapes in colorful packaging to subliminally advertise to children. The health department cited services to help quit that are available by calling 1-800-QUIT-NOW (1-800-784-8669) or 1-855-DEJELO-YA (1-855-335-3569). Services are available online at QuitNowNM.org or DejeloYaNM.org. Gov & Politics, Health, vaping Other items that may interest you
IONNA and Circle K enter partnership to expand access to EV charging in the U.S. at IONNA Rechargeries @ Circle K. April 14, 2026 - DURHAM, N.C. IONNA, the charging network founded by eight of the world's top automakers, including BMW, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mercedes-Benz, Stellantis and Toyota, announced a landmark strategic partnership with leading convenience and mobility brand Circle K to significantly expand access to high-powered EV charging across the United States. The collaboration is centered around a strategic ambition to expand to more than 350 sites featuring Rechargeries @ Circle K, combining IONNA's charging technology and driver-first experience with Circle K's nationwide footprint. IONNA, which will assume operation of sites across Circle K's existing U.S. charging portfolio, will rapidly convert and upgrade approximately 85 existing Circle K charging sites. Additionally, IONNA will accelerate new deployments at premium, high-traffic Circle K locations where no chargers currently exist. The first Rechargeries @ Circle K will begin serving customers by the end of 2026, followed by additional scale in 2027. "We are honored that Circle K has recognized IONNA as a leader in the industry and entrusted us to serve their customers with the same care and commitment to excellence that they show now," said Aaron Wolff, COO of IONNA. "Circle K's scale, customer focus, and quality of location make them an ideal partner as we rapidly expand high-power charging where drivers already want to stop." With more than 7,300 stores in the U.S., Circle K is known for value, quality products and fast, friendly service at well-maintained sites with modern stores and forecourts. Circle K offers a wide selection of snacks, fresh grab-and-go food, packaged and dispensed beverages, everyday convenience items and car wash options at select locations. "At Circle K, our ambition is to make EV charging as easy and convenient as possible for our customers," said Håkon Stiksrud, VP of Global eMobility at Circle K. "Partnering with IONNA enables us to scale high-power charging quickly at locations drivers already trust - combining fast, reliable charging with a great food and beverage experience. This partnership is an important step in preparing for the future, delivering not just charging, but a complete retail experience that supports our customers on the go." Under joint stewardship, drivers at Rechargeries @ Circle K can recharge both their EVs and themselves, with IONNA delivering charging speeds of up to 400 kW, plus both NACS and CCS access, and Circle K having road-trip favorites that fuel drivers on their journey. The partnership advances IONNA's mission to build 30,000 high-power charging bays by 2030.

New Mexico AG sues retailers for youth vape addiction. New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez filed a lawsuit against Circle K and other major retailers, alleging violations of the state's Unfair Practices Act for marketing vapes and e-cigarettes in ways that appeal to children. The suit claims the products' colorful packaging and sweet flavors are designed to attract minors, contributing to some of the highest youth nicotine usage rates in the country. Torrez seeks damages, including civil penalties of $5,000 per violation, following his previous $375 million win against Meta for similar violations. Health experts and school officials cited in the lawsuit highlight the dangers of adolescent vaping, including addiction, lung damage, increased risk-taking behavior, and mental health impacts. The Attorney General also said the presence of online "straw purchases" that funnel e-cigarettes to minors, comparing the ongoing harm to historic tobacco-related public health crises.
New Mexico AG sues Circle K, other retailers for 'their role' in youth nicotine addiction. By: joshua Bowling - March 31, 2026 12:51 pm. New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez on March 31, 2026, stood alongside Walatowa High Charter School Counselor Mary Warren and University of New Mexico pediatrician Dr. Michael DiGirolamo to announce a lawsuit against retailers who sell e-cigarettes for their alleged role in driving youth nicotine addiction. (Joshua Bowling/Source NM) New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez on Tuesday announced a lawsuit against Circle K and other major retailers that sell vapes and e-cigarettes for allegedly violating the state's Unfair Practices Act and contributing to outsized rates of nicotine addiction in children. The lawsuit, filed in the state's First Judicial District, alleges that these retailers sell vapes and e-cigarettes in colorful packaging and bold flavors in "blatant disregard for public health and safety." The packaging and flavors intentionally subliminally advertise to children, Torrez said, who disproportionately use these products in New Mexico. The lawsuit alleges that a 2019 survey found more than one in three New Mexico high schoolers admitted to using these products, the highest recorded response behind just West Virginia and North Carolina. "These products are engineered to taste like candy, designed to be hidden in a backpack and loaded with enough nicotine to create a lifelong addiction," Torrez said at a Tuesday morning news conference in Albuquerque. Torrez's lawsuit seeks damages including an unspecified amount of restitution and civil penalties of $5,000 per violation of the Unfair Practices Act. The suit follows Torrez's high-profile win against social media giant Meta, which a jury found to have violated the same law and endangered the state's youth. The Santa Fe jury ordered Meta to pay $375 million in damages to the state. Studies have shown that childhood and adolescent use of these vapes and e-cigarettes lead to adverse health effects, including increased physical fights and suicide attempts. Studies have also found that young people who use e-cigarettes overwhelmingly believe they are healthier than traditional cigarettes, despite the common presence of heavy metals and chemicals like formaldehyde. Michael DiGirolamo, a University of New Mexico pediatric pulmonologist, told reporters at the news conference that he has seen firsthand the scarred lungs of youth who vape. "Children are more vulnerable to the addictive qualities of nicotine from e-cigarettes than adults," he said. "Once inhaled, nicotine acts in as little as seven seconds on receptors in the brain, including the prefrontal cortex," which is responsible for executive function and moderating risk-taking behaviors and is not fully formed until around the age of 25, he added. Mary Warren, a counselor at Walatowa High Charter School in Jemez Pueblo, said she is alarmed at the number of times she's seen students sneak vapes into school - and even more alarmed at how many times they must get away with hiding the keychain-sized devices in their backpacks. In addition to brick-and-mortar retailers, Torrez said New Mexico Department of Justice officials have identified a supply chain not unlike straw purchases for firearms. People who are legally allowed to buy e-cigarettes order them in bulk online and then proceed to sell them to kids in their area at a markup, he said. "For a lot of Americans of a different generation, I think there was a sense that we could put this in our past, in the rearview," Torrez said, referring to the historic tobacco settlements of the 1990s. "The reality is that this harm has re-emerged. It is international in scope and it is having a profound present-day impact on our young people."
