SOMERVILLE, MASSACHUSETTS'S ANSWER TO VAPING BY TEENS

Attempting to beat back the rise of vaping among teens, the city of Somerville, Massachusetts, voted this month to limit e-cigarettes and menthol cigarettes to the shelves of tobacco stores open only to customers 21 and older.

Somerville's move, the first of its kind in the state and possibly the nation, goes further by taking menthol and e-cigarettes out of shops, like convenience stores, that teens can enter. The new restriction in this city outside of Boston will go into effect on April 1, 2019.
