Denver and all 49 other states have now made it illegal for anyone under the age of 21 to purchase any tobacco products

The new law was set in motion last week by congress also includes banning any heating of a liquid ie. Vaping.

The law enacted changed the legal limit from 18 to 21 across the United States and was signed on Dec 20th. The law comes in the wake of already one-third of the states creating laws that restrict tobaccco sales to people 21 and older like taking away flavored juul pods that clearly market towards kids.

    A lot of my friends vape and while I’m not personally a fan of it I do agree that the decision to use nicotine products should be left to the individual.

    I think this is a good idea in theory but I am curious to see the data on how sales have been affected and the revenue etc.
