We begin with a few key stories we're following.

Teen vaping is on the decline.

A new report finds teens are far less likely to use e-cigarettes than they were just a few years ago.

The data from the CDC and Food and Drug Administration finds youth vaping levels fell to the lowest in a decade.

According to the National Youth Tobacco Survey, at the peak of 2019, more than 5 million students in middle and high school across the country were using e-cigarettes.

Now, about 1.6 million students, or 6% currently use the products.

That's a 70% drop during that time period.

And it was largely driven by high schoolers ditching vapes.

Advocates see it as a sign of progress, and many attribute the change at least partly to legal steps.

The FDA took in partnership with the Department of Justice to curb use.

Since 2023, the FDA issued more than a thousand warning letters and hundreds of civil penalties to retailers.

New Jersey, meanwhile, was the first state in the nation to ban the sale of all flavored e-cigarette products, including those bubblegum and fruit flavors that were accused of being marketed for teens.
