Today I released legislation that would restrict the sale of all tobacco and nicotine delivery products, including electronic cigarettes, to minors. Additionally, this bill would add e-cigarette use to the current workplace and public place smoking bans in Massachusetts. This legislation seeks to keep addictive nicotine products, like e-cigarettes, out of the hands of our youth to better ensure their healthy future. Below, please find links to a press release on this legislation, a fact sheet detailing its provisions, a copy of the legislative language, and a policy brief on tobacco and nicotine products.
