After my @OversightDems hearings exposed @JUULvapor's illegal advertising practices, they are stopping TV, radio, print, and digital advertising. I'm encouraged by this and am waiting on you to do the same: @VUSEVapor, @blucigs, @LogicVapesUK https://t.co/JHng0rqQ5S

Juul CEO is stepping down amid “outrage over vaping.” Ok fine. He’s being replaced by a tobacco company CEO...because our collective outrage memory is incredibly short? https://t.co/elxndZ21qB

Stopping advertising in the US is Step 1. They need to do the same in the UK ASAP. Deaths in UK are no different from deaths in US! https://t.co/unNyEIbvEf

전자담배회사 Juul Labs의 CEO인 케빈 번스가 사임하고 Juul의 주식 35%를 소유한 거대 담배회사인 알트리아의 임원이 새로운 CEO가 될 예정. 최근 강화된 규정과 십대 흡연의 주범이라는 지적을 받아왔던 상황. 중국과 인도도 진출과 동시에 금지되며 심각한 타격을 입음 https://t.co/2WAOtmstV8 pic.twitter.com/DQUyid6dvn
