U.S Rep. Diana DeGette Meet With Denver Teens Discuss Teen-Vaping Epidemic

U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette (D-CO) will be meeting Monday with a group of local high school students to hear directly from them about how the nation’s teen-vaping epidemic is affecting our young people.The meeting comes just days before DeGette is scheduled to chair a congressional panel hearing with the heads of the nation’s five largest e-cigarette manufacturers - JUUL, NJOY, Fontem, Logic and Reynolds American - who collectively control more than 97% of the market. Among those DeGette will be meeting with are more than a half-dozen South High School students ranging from ninth to twelfth grade, each of whom will share their own experiences using various vaping products, what drew them to try the product in the first place, and why they believe it’s become so popular among students both here in Colorado and around the country.
