Los Angeles City Council has voted to ban the use of electronic cigarettes in the city's restaurants, bars, nightclubs and public spaces.
The council voted unanimously to ban the battery-powered devices, which are filled with nicotine liquid.
If the bill is signed into law, Los Angeles would follow New York and Chicago in imposing similar rules.
A consultation looking at the advertising of e-cigarettes in the UK began last week.
The use of e-cigarettes in the UK has increased rapidly. According to data research company Mintel, the market is now worth £193m.
Their use has been controversial, with some politicians saying they are "re-normalising" smoking.
