Tweet - "In my meeting today with @FDACommissioner, I wanted to convey a clear message: #VapingTargetsKids. Nationwide, 5 million children are vaping today -- more than 1 in 4 high schoolers - and it's because of JUUL and mint/fruit/candy flavors like unicorn milk and gummy bear."
Sen. Dick Durbin

Tweet - "Educating our nation's students is a responsibility we cannot afford to take lightly. Wonderful to sit down today with @janicejackson, CEO of @ChiPubSchools, to talk education policy, the Chicago HEAL initiative, and ending youth vaping."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 11, 2019
Tweet - "The Trump Administration promises to take flavored vaping pods off the market. With an e-cigarette epidemic in our schools, this action is long overdue but welcome. #VapingTargetsKids End kids vaping now."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 11, 2019
Tweet - "#VapingTargetsKids, and these flavors--mint, menthol, gummy bear, Unicorn Milk, lung candy--have been essential to the industry luring children into this new addiction. I will closely review @US_FDA's guidance. Finally, @US_FDA is doing its job."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 11, 2019
Tweet - "#VapingTargetsKids. Just look at the flavors on the market today. Unicorn milk, bubble gum, gummy bear. These aren't aimed at a 50-year-old chain smoker trying to quit cigarettes. They're designed to attract children, and they're working. It's time @US_FDA puts an end to it."
Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 11, 2019
Tweet - "Today, 1 out of 5 high-schoolers nationwide are vaping -- an increase of 80% over the last year. They were told--by JUUL--that it's a safe alternative to tobacco. It's not. We need @US_FDA to step up today, or this deadly epidemic is only going to grow. #VapingTargetsKids"

Sen. Dick Durbin
Sept. 9, 2019
Tweet - "Hats off to @GovWhitmer of Michigan for banning vaping in her state. Governors need to do all they can to protect our kids from deadly e-cigarettes. VAPING VICTIMIZES KIDS. JUUL LIES AND OUR KIDS' LUNGS PAY THE PRICE."
