AI Summary
This bill aims to protect youth from the harms of tobacco and e-cigarette products. The key provisions are: 1) Adding a definition for "Adult-Only Retail Tobacco Store" to the state's laws, which are establishments that primarily sell tobacco products and prohibit entry for those under the minimum legal sales age. 2) Prohibiting the sale or distribution of tobacco products to consumers, except in adult-only retail tobacco stores or smoking bars. 3) Clarifying that the state and its political subdivisions can regulate the sale and distribution of tobacco products and smoking bars more strictly than this law.
