I made a commitment to parents and teens to hold e-cigarette companies accountable. Today, we have uncovered new info about how JUUL targeted and sold its addictive products to kids.
This company created the youth vaping epidemic. They cannot profit from it. We are suing JUUL.
The 84 Movement retweeted
The percentage of current JUUL users who use the device regularly — on at least 10 of the last 30 days — increased to 37.6% in 2019, up from that already alarming 26.1% in 2018. Our new study goes in-depth: truthinitiative.org/press/pr…

Have you talked with YOUR child about the dangers of youth e-cigarette use? It’s important they know the risks.

"I missed so many important milestones in my life all because of vaping."
These teens open up about how vaping almost cut their lives short. Now, they're calling on the industry to make sure it doesn't happen again

It is time to protect the next generation from Big Tobacco.
Use the link below to tell your local legislator you support a ban on mint, menthol, and other flavored tobacco products used to target young people. #FightTheFlavor #FightAllFlavors

Last year when I released my ecig/ vaping advisory, some suggested it was premature, and alarmist. New @NIDAnews data shows we are now even worse (doubling of youth use since 2017). We must act now before we erase the hard earned gains made in lowering youth tobacco product use!

Did you know that 1.69 billion pounds of cigarette litter is dumped on Earth each day – making cigarettes the most littered item on beaches worldwide each year? #EarthDay

The vaping industry is running Big Tobacco's playbook to get young people hooked on nicotine. We should model our response to e-cigarettes on our effective response to traditional cigarettes: tax these highly addictive products and ban flavors. bostonherald.com/2019/04/10/…
