The Gallup annual consumer survey was conducted from July 5th to July 26th, following the FDA's ban on JUUL in the United States.


Currently, 61% of Americans support stricter regulations on electronic cigarettes, slightly higher than the 54% who held this view last year but similar to the 64% in 2019. A public opinion survey also found that most Americans support a ban on nicotine in cigarettes rather than menthol.
