U.S. history of tobacco minimum purchase age by state
text:
The minimum purchasing age for tobacco in the United States before December 20, 2019 varied by state and territory. Since December 20, 2019, the smoking age in all states and territories is 21 under federal law which was passed by Congress and signed by President Donald Trump. The de jure minimum age remains 18 in some states, e.g. the federal law is not enforced in Arizona, and in Alaska the minimum age in 19; in 2022 the governor vetoed a senate law to raise it to 21.
