On today’s show, PAVe moms Meredith Berkman and Dorian Fuhrman interview Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi of Illinois, a leader in the fight against the youth vaping epidemic. As chairman of the House Oversight Subcommittee on Economics and Consumer Policy, Krishnamoorthi has held multiple hearings about JUUL (and other e-cigarette companies), holding them publicly accountable for preying on minors and breaking FDA regulations. Krishnamoorthi, who has called on FDA to remove all e-cigarettes from the market during the pandemic, is now going after Puff Bar, the new JUUL.
