“If the governor signs the legislation, Mississippi will increased the age to 21 to buy tobacco and vaping products and penalties will increase for selling to minors. In addition to penalties for sellers, minors will face penalties for possessing and use of e-cigarettes and other vaping products. Senate Bill 2596 conforms Mississippi law to new federal law to purchase tobacco and vaping products. Mississippi law currently prohibits use and sales of e-cigarettes and other alternative nicotine products to anyone under 18. If Gov. Tate Reeves signs SB 2596, the measure will increase the age to 21 to possess and purchase the vaping products. The bill is due from Reeves on Wednesday. He hasn’t indicated whether he will sign it.”
