Starting this week, you’ll have to be 21 to buy tobacco in Chicago
It’s the final day for 18-, 19- and 20-year-olds to buy tobacco products in Chicago. The age requirement for buying cigarettes and other items with tobacco jumps to 21 on Friday. Other cities, including New York City and Boston, and states like California and Hawaii have already raised the age requirement to discourage teens from smoking. [Associated Press via ABC News]
