Our consumer fraud lawsuit against #JUUL will move fwd after the Superior Court denied JUUL’s attempt to dismiss. JUUL argued, among other things, that the AGO's claims were preempted by federal law. Court denied JUUL’s motion to dismiss in its entirety. azag.gov/press-release/…
As the Court’s ruling indicates, our complaint is a textbook example of alleging illegal conduct prohibited by Arizona’s Consumer Fraud Act. We will vigorously pursue this matter to a resolution that will hold JUUL responsible for targeting Arizona youth.
Our complaint alleges #JUUL:
* Appealed to, targeted, misled, and exploited youth with fruit flavors, social media campaigns, and free giveaways;
* Failed to take steps to prevent underage purchase and distribution; and
* Misrepresented the amount of nicotine in JUUL's products.

1/8 And a few more points for @GovWhitmer, a thread...
Teen use of vaping products, as reported by @US_FDA was overwhelmingly because of "curiosity" rather than flavors as you keep trying to claim, which is data from the 2019 NYTS fda.gov/tobacco-produc… with most using Juul

2/8 This leads directly into point number two, from looking at FDA sales/inspection data, it is, again overwhelmingly not vape shops that are selling to teens, this data can be seen here yes-i-vape.com/post/fda-compl… out of all sales to underage in MI only 13 (2.22% were at vape shops)
