Massachusetts town mulls nation's first total tobacco ban
Clip: 11/14/2014 | 8m 2s
A Massachusetts town could become the first in the nation to ban the sale of tobacco.
The town of Westminster, Mass., could become the first in the nation to ban the sale of tobacco products if a proposal from the city's board of health passes in December. The unprecedented pitch would ban the sale cigarettes, chewing tobacco and e-cigarettes within the city. Proponents cite reduced health risks, whereas some residents and local businesses say jobs and consumer freedom is at stake.
