Hawaii has become the first state to raise the legal tobacco use age to 21.<\/p>\n

The law prohibits people under the age of 21 from smoking, buying, or possessing tobacco products.<\/p>\n

The law specifically includes electronic smoking devices, defined as “any electronic product that can be used to aerosolize and deliver nicotine or other substances to the person inhaling the device, an electronic cigarette, electronic cigar, electronic cigarillo, or electronic pipe, and any cartridge or other component of the device or related product.”<\/p>\n

The law was passed, in part, due to growing concerns about the prevalence of e-cigarette use among youth, noting that 29 percent of 9th and 10th graders in six Hawaii high schools report using these products at least once, and 18 percent report using them regularly, according to the state\u2019s news release.<\/p>\n

“Partners statewide have come together to support this monumental legislation that once again puts Hawaii at the cutting edge of public health policy and protecting the health of our youth,” the state’s director of health, Virginia Pressler, said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Hawaii Gov. David Ige signed Senate Bill 1030 (Act 122)<\/a> late last month. The law will go into effect Jan. 1.<\/p>\n

Lawmakers are also pushing to raise the tobacco use age in Washington State and California, where the state Senate passed a bill to raise the age last month, sending the legislation to the Assembly for a vote.<\/p>\n
