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.
Starting Saturday, the age limit goes up to 21, when a new ordinance takes effect. âYouâre going to have some customers that are going to be upset, but the lawâs the law,â says Kosta Douvikas of D and D Finer Foods. Evanston becomes the first Illinois town to ban tobacco sales under age 21. Cardiologist Tim Sanborn, a member of Evanstonâs health advisory council, says 90 percent of smokers start before theyâre 21.
