WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - The electronic cigarette company Juul Labs, Inc. has agreed to pay $440 million to dozens of US states to settle an investigation into the company's marketing campaign allegedly targeting youth, Connecticut Attorney General William Tong said.
"Attorney General William Tong today led 34 states and territories in announcing a $438.5 million agreement in principle with Juul Labs, resolving a two-year bipartisan investigation into the e-cigarette manufacturer’s marketing and sales practices," Tong said in a press release on Tuesday.
Tong also said the settlement will end the company's marketing campaign to the youth, which he claimed had created a new generation of nicotine addicts, and will send millions of dollars across the United States to reduce tobacco use.
