Late Wednesday, Brown signed the bill raising the age for tobacco use, including vaping, to 21, the Associated Press reports. He also vetoed a bill that would have asked voters to divert tobacco taxes to pay for the health expenses of those with tobacco-related ailments, according to the Los Angeles Times.

    I know some of my drunkest moments were between the ages of 16-20. Don't think I would have ever bought either for my siblings though. Granted I was miles away in school at the time, but they would have had to do it the hard way like I did even if I was still at home.
