Newburyport raises tobacco-buying age to 19
Newburyport recently joined nearly two dozen other communities in Massachusetts that have raised the legal age limit to purchase tobacco products.
Starting July 1, only individuals 19 and older will be allowed to buy cigarettes or other tobacco products in the city near the New Hampshire border.
The Board of Health voted March 20 to increase the purchase age, in an effort to keep tobacco out of the hands of high school students, according to Robert Bracey, Newburyport director of public health.
