The CMA passed the resolution at its annual convention Sunday. It calls for the association's six full-time lobbyists to support any efforts in the state legislature to raise the legal age to buy, possess or receive tobacco products.

The smoking age in every state is at least 18; three states -- Utah, Alaska and Alabama -- set it at 19. No state has a higher age.

While the CMA's lobbyists have a new mandate, it may be a while before they have to implement it. No legislation to raise the smoking age is currently before the Legislature.
