Passage; March 9, 2019; Journal Page 818; 20 Yeas, 11 Nays.
YCT Nay. SB 21 defines a minor as 21 years old or younger and prohibits those under 21 from being allowed to purchase tobacco products and products containing nicotine. YCT opposes this bill because it limits individual freedom for citizens already considered adult enough to vote and serve in the military.
