In a rare show of bipartisanship, U.S. lawmakers are working together to push a bill to become law that would raise the federal minimum age to buy tobacco products, including cigarettes, cigars, e-cigarettes and smokeless tobacco, to 21. The bill, known as the Tobacco to 21 Act, is a major development on the public health front, as cigarette smoking accounts for 1 in 5 deaths in the U.S. annually and is the leading cause of preventable death worldwide. Various public health groups including the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network, the American Lung Association and the American Heart Association all support the bill and its efforts to protect the American people, specifically our youth.
