JUUL Settles for $18.8 Million with Oregon State.
JUUL to pay $18.8 million settlement to Oregon for targeting youth. Teen e-cigarette use remains prevalent in the state.

Oregon is expected to receive a settlement of approximately $18.8 million from JUUL. The company will be required to pay fees to the state over a period of 6 to 10 years, and will be paying a total of over $438 million to several other states.


This is the result of a two-year investigation into the marketing practices of the company targeting young people in Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut. But what is vaping like for young people in Oregon? While state data from 2020 shows a decrease in usage, Redmond High School principal Chris Davis says vaping is still prevalent among students. We'll hear from him about the situation at his school and the actions they've taken. Additionally, to gain a better understanding of what's happening in the state, Oregon's Deputy Health Officer and Epidemiologist, Tom Jeanne, has joined the effort.
