Illinois is the latest state to file a lawsuit against e-cigarette maker Juul, alleging the company undid 'years of progress made to reduce youth smoking rates'
Illinois is the latest state to file a lawsuit against e-cigarette maker Juul, alleging the company undid"years of progress made to reduce youth smoking rates."
The lawsuit, filed by Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul on Thursday, alleges Juul used a"sleek, easy-to-conceal e-cigarette" combined with fruity flavors that masked a less harsh nicotine solution that it marketed to minors. Juul's e-cigarette device resembles a USB flash drive, can be charged via a USB port, and can be used discreetly, all features that make Juul's device more appealing to youth, according to the lawsuit.
