Nearly a dozen communities across the state within the past year have raised the age for tobacco sales higher than 18 years old, evidence of a slow-spreading movement that activists say will reduce cigarette use among teens. Most states, including Massachusetts, allow 18-year-olds to buy tobacco products. Alaska, Alabama, Utah and New Jersey are the exceptions, all of which have pushed the legal age to 19.
No person shall sell, give or furnish to a person under 19 years of age, any cigarettes made of tobacco. The minimum age of 16 years was introduced in 1904. The minimum age was raised from 16 to 18 in 1988. The minimum age was raised from 18 to 19 in 2005.
