Gaps in Awareness of the United States Minimum Legal Age of E-Cigarette and Cigarette Sales: Implications for Public Health Messaging.
Purpose: In 2019, the United States raised the minimum legal age (MLA) of sales for all tobacco products from 18 to 21. Public awareness of the federal MLA of tobacco sales overall and by demographics is understudied.
Methods: A national, cross-sectional 2023 survey in which 6,098 participants aged 13-40 years responded to the question, "at which age is it legal to purchase [e-cigarettes; cigarettes; alcohol] in the United States?" Participants also reported age, sex, race/ethnicity, and prior use of each substance.
Results: Sixty-one percent, 64.6%, and 88.7% correctly identified the MLA of sales for e-cigarettes, cigarettes, and alcohol, respectively. Differences in awareness of the MLA were found by age, sex, race/ethnicity, and prior use status.
Discussion: Gaps in awareness of the MLA of tobacco sales, particularly among adolescents and adults, suggest messaging regarding the federal Tobacco 21 law is needed.
