Taking on Big Tobacco: A Historic Fight for California In the 1990s, as lawsuits against Big Tobacco gained momentum nationwide, California initially stayed out of the fight until then-Lieutenant Governor Gray Davis stepped up for the state’s citizens. Davis personally enlisted Frederick Schenk to lead a groundbreaking lawsuit against major tobacco companies, including R.J. Reynolds and Lorillard Tobacco. Frederick Schenk, serving as Davis’ personal legal advisor, helped file a private attorney general lawsuit to recover taxpayer dollars spent on medical costs for tobacco-related illnesses. The result? A historic settlement of billions of dollars that relieved California’s financial burdens and held Big Tobacco accountable for the harm caused to its citizens. This monumental case stands as a powerful example of justice for public health and financial recovery for the people of California. ??
