Tennessee Smoking Laws

Tennessee is taking a cautious wait and see approach to the use of e-cigarettes. They are more liberal than many other states and may be waiting for FDA statements. The American Heart Association recently reported that marketing e-cigarettes needs to be curbed. A survey found that 48% of e-cig users said television as where they heard about them. Youth exposure to e-cigarette advertising, according to a study in Pediatrics, skyrocketed over 250 percent from 2011 to 2013, effectively reaching 24 million young people during that two-year period. Here are the basic tobacco laws for Tennessee:
