Dear Supporters, Join us this month as we discuss the tobacco industry’s latest attempt to avoid regulation and addict our kids: unsubstantiated claims of using synthetic nicotine that could exempt products from FDA oversight. Guess who’s leading the charge on Big Tobacco’s new tactic? Puff Bar, the disposable vape brand called out by FDA in 2020 for marketing to kids--and now acknowledged by the agency as the most popular brand among youth. We'll cover how Puff Bar, along with others like Bidi, are exploiting a dangerous loophole that is impacting youth use. PAVe cofounder Meredith Berkman will sit down with the Public Health Law Center's Natalie Hemmerich and Stanford Tobacco Research into the Impact of Tobacco Advertising's Dr. Robert Jackler, to talk about - Products and trends
- Youth addiction and health
- Tobacco industry's history with synthetic nicotine
- Regulation and solutions
- Actions parents can take to fight back
