i'm a jool employee, and i just decided to share with you the story of why i decided to work at jool. i was happy at my job and had a negative opinion as many of you do. as i learned more about the company and more about the mission to eliminate combustible cigarettes, i started to think about my own life. the very first memory i hearkened back to was the death of my grandfather from lung disease. if we think back, we probably have lost all of our aunts and uncles, especially in the south, where smoking is prevalent, to combustible cigarettes. so i feel very fortunate to be a part of an organization that provides satisfying alternatives to people that can actually make the switch. you've heard from some of those people here today. so i just wanted to speak to that and bring a face to who we're talking about. oftentimes, we otherize and stigmatize these issues. i'd encourage you to look at other nations, other councils that have actually embraced harm reduction, especially around vape products and do a little bit of research, and i think you'll find some very promising things for our f

and i want to point out it's not just jool pods. we know these are products that eventually entices young people to switch over to smoking cigarettes. i want to encourage you that young people need your protection, and san francisco needs your protection from the dangers that come from these products. >> supervisor mandelman: professor, if i may ask you, one of the arguments fagain ths ban is e-cigarettes are doing less damage to a person's body than traditional cigarettes, and i was wondering if you could share your thoughts on that argument. >> right. so if you're probably aware, there's a very visceral, vociferous debate going on from people who have worked in tobacco for many years about the dangers of these products. the fact is there are no trials that indicate these are safe or efficacious for use. so essentially, the f.d.a. reneged on its deal. one of the reasons is that the emerging scientific research is that they're more harmful than originally reported. the harm reduction was based on a premise unsupported by science. th

the tobacco -- generally -- jool has had the opportunity to submit for f.d.a. approval for three years, but it didn't, so why should public health be punished for its negligence? these aren't a harm reduction product. far more youth are being addicted to nicotine than switching from cigarettes. kids have initiated e-cigarette use in droves because it appears safer, and it appears with less risk. as a result, more people are putting themselves at risk with nicotine addiction. my grandpa, when he used cigarettes at 14, he continues to use nicotine at 89. should we abandon kids to a lifelong addiction at the hands of predatory companies? so i urge you to ban this. thank you. >> my name is tony. i just wanted to say i grew up at a time when we didn't have access to things like vaporizers to nicotine. i lost people to cigarettes because they didn't have the ability to things like that. nicotine helped us wipe out the plague when we didn't have antibiotics in the 16th century. it was a brutal thing, then as in the 80's and 90's, and we were still not having access to

plus, officials for e-cigarette giant jool are on the hill today. it's after teenagers told lawmakers that jool sent a rep to the classroom and said that e-cigarettes are totally safe. they said it happened when they were in the ninth grade pay that's coming up on "the daily briefing." i'll see you at 2:00. >> harris: out to this news, a federal judge in california has blocked the trump administrations new asylum restrictions regarding most migrants who plan the first country they reach. this, after a judge in washington decided to let the policy stand while lawsuits play out in court. william la jeunesse in los angeles, looking at this. what does this mean? >> this was maybe the president's last best shot to slow down the surge of central american migrants, harris. remember, the president tried to deny entry to asylum-seekers who entered illegally and that san francisco judge shut that down. yesterday the same judge will against the new policy that denied entry to migrants who failed to apply for asylum in country they traveled through before reach
