Petition Action

Increase the minimum age to purchase paint aerosols to 18

Petition Details

Increase the law on the age for buying paint aerosols to 18 years old.

Additional Information

We believe the benefits of allowing youths between 16-18 to buy spray paint aerosols do not outweigh the cost and effort of removing graffiti and the risks of sniffing aerosols. Many States in USA have a minimum age of 18.
