Juul has shelled out $3 million as the San Francisco vaping ban battle intensifies
in July revealed that Juul paid high schools to implement a company-sponsored curriculum, and a 17-year-old testified before the panel that a company representative came to his high school in 2018 told students that Juul products were “totally safe.” At the same hearing, James Monsees, Juul’s cofounder and chief product officer, denied that the company marketed to youth.
“Cigarettes kill 8 million people a year,” the ad states. “They shouldn't stay on the shelf while e-cigarettes are banned. It's just a gift to cigarette makers. Instead, let's further restrict e-cigarette sales and marketing to youth, and keep the City's existing flavored e-cigarette ban.”in June that the use of the words “comprehensively authorize and regulate” in the ballot measure “means it replaces anything else that's now on the books.
SF Kids vs. Big Tobacco, the chief pro-flavor ban campaign committee last year, was revived last month as the opposition group against Juul’s November proposition. The committee is backed by a slew of public health organizations including the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network, American Heart Association, American Lung Association and the Tobacco-Free Kids Action Fund.
