SMN Weekly – California Raises Legal Smoking Age to 21

SMN Weekly – California Raises Legal Smoking Age to 21: "Get ready Californians. You are becoming the first state to have the highest minimum smoking age if only a bill would be passed by the council. The bill to increase the legal age for smoking was proposed by state senator Ed. Hernandez (D.Azusa) on Thursday.

Making an announcement on Friday, Hernandez said, “Tobacco companies are aware that people tend to become addicted to smoking if they start it at young age. Senate Bill 151 proposes to increase the legitimate smoking age in California from 18 to 21 years in an offer to restrain tobacco smoking in children and teenagers.”"
