In the ‘90s, it was a first-in the nation ban on smoking in most indoor locations. Last year, 63% of Californians voted to uphold a state law banning the sale of flavored tobacco products.
Now, a proposal for a generational ban on tobacco sales.
Assembly Bill 935, by Assemblyman Damon Connolly, D-San Rafael, would prohibit the sale of tobacco products to anyone born on or after Jan. 1, 2007. That means today’s 15-and-16-year-olds, and anyone younger.
