New York’s legislatures voted to ban the selling of electronic cigarettes to minors.  Gov.  Andrew Cuomo now has the option to sign the bill and join become the 5th state to ban e-cig that carry nicotine sales to minors;  the others are Alaaka, Idaho, Kansas and Maryland.

Linda Rosenthal, Democrat for Manhattan, was the force behind house passage, though it did receive last-minute entanglements with the Republican-run Senate.

On Thursday the Senate did, however, pass the bill on its last day with a 60-0 vote.

I, personally, believe this is the right move for our legislative branch; focus on the areas that coincide with typical tobacco use and minors.
