I's like to announce my support for this bill. We need to stimulate the tobacco industry and give our teens the freedom to be adults.

I am totally fine with this, but I think sixteen is a good age to stop with these kind of things- it's the age where adult responsibility starts coming in at full force.

[SWE]

This bill is primarily so that the NE doesn't have a higher smoking age than the nation one (which, if my understanding of Senator TNF's "Swert Sixteen Act" is correct, would be 16).

[Sopranos Republican]

Strongly support of course, smoking is a personal decision that 16 year olds are perfectly capable of making for themselves.
