[FONT="]Bill would eventually make Hawaii first state to ban cigarette sales
Hilo, Hawaii -- A Big Island lawmaker has proposed incrementally increasing the minimum age to buy cigarettes until there was, for all practical purposes, a ban on their sale in Hawaii.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Under his bill, the minimum smoking age would increase to 30 in 2020, 40 in 2021, 50 in 2022, 60 in 2023, and 100 in 2024.[/FONT]
[FONT="]The measure wouldn't apply to e-cigarettes, cigars or chewing tobacco.
