An Act further regulating the sale of tobacco products

This bill requires tobacco retailers in Massachusetts to carry at least one FDA-approved nicotine replacement therapy product to help customers quit smoking. It directly affects businesses that sell tobacco by mandating they stock cessation aids alongside their existing inventory. Retailers who fail to comply face fines of $100 for the first violation, $200 for a second, and $300 for any subsequent offenses. The state Department of Public Health is authorized to create specific rules to enforce this requirement.
