Juul Supports Legislation to Regulate Nicotine Products in Florida
E-cigarette company JUUL calls for further regulation of nicotine products to deter illegal sales from China.

According to a report by Health News Florida on January 25, e-cigarette company JUUL has reached out to Florida lawmakers seeking support for increased regulations on nicotine products due to concerns over the illicit sale of e-cigarette products imported from China.

 

Currently, e-cigarette company JUUL Labs has written to the Florida legislature in support of bills SB 1006 and HB 1007. These bills aim to further regulate nicotine products in order to tackle the issue of certain retailers illegally selling e-cigarette products imported from China.

 

These bills will require nicotine product manufacturers to submit necessary forms to the tobacco department for each product sold in the state and provide additional information as required. In addition, certain violations will be subject to penalties. In a letter, representatives from Juul stated that these two bills will create a "well-regulated market" for legal e-cigarette products.
