Everyone has been talking about a possible flavor ban of vape juice in the past six months or more, particularly with the ANPRM (proposed rule changes at the FDA to restrict flavored tobacco products) along with Commissioner Gottlieb's recent comments.

There has also been an increase in calls for flavor bans from Attorney Generals from around the United States and cities such as San Francisco have outright banned flavored e-liquids.

Last week, Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan, along with 8 other state AGs, urged the FDA to ban flavored vape juice. Massachusetts AG Maura Healey took the to announce she is launching an "investigation" into JUUL's marketing practices.

Now Senator Dick Durbin (D) of Illinois has held a press conference with the Commissioner of the Chicago Department of Public Health and others to announce legislation to "crack down" on flavors that are "kid friendly".
