U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, & Transportation Hosts Hearing on E-Cig Marketing

Posted on

On June 18 2014, the U.S Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation held a hearing  “Aggressive E-Cigarette Marketing and Potential Consequences for Youth”, to look into e-cigarette advertising and promotional practices that appeal to kids. These unregulated devices have increased in popularity among minors and there is an increasing amount of evidence that the industry is marketing to youth.

A video recording of the hearing can be found on the U.S Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation website and it can also be viewed on C-SPAN.
