The Department of Justice is conducting a nationwide operation today to remove illicit vaping products that are being strategically distributed and sold at retailers across our country. While today's seizure in Illinois is the largest so far, Additional seizures today as we speak are being made or have been made this morning at five other retailers and four other distributors in North Carolina, Arizona, New Jersey, Georgia, and Florida. We are extremely proud again of this joint effort, and we are just getting started. Let this be a clear message to the retailers and the distributors pushing these illicit vaping products on our kids and on our families. (05:14–05:30)
