New Jersey and the Culture of Death
New Jersey became the third state in the nation to prohibit the sale of tobacco products to anyone under 21, Gov. Chris Christie announced Friday, saying, “no one should lose their life due to any addictive substance.”
New Jersey already had banned tobacco sales to anyone under 19. But the bill’s advocates pushed for a higher age pointing to studies that show youth who don’t take up smoking into their early 20s will never make it a habit.
Chris Christie just did something he says will save lives in N.J.
NJ joins 2 other states in raising the age to buy tobacco to 21: California and Hawaii
Meanwhile, in New Jersey if a pregnant girl under the age of 18, i.e., a minor, wants to have an abortion, that child is not required to involve their parents….
No parental notification required in California and Hawaii either….
