contents We prove that all left-invariant contact structures on three-dimensional Lie groups are tight. The argument is based on Riemannian methods and establishes a unique factorization property for any Lie group admitting a left-invariant contact structure, other than SU(2). We then make use of such factorization property to construct embeddings of left-invariant contact structures into the standard contact structure on $\mathbb R^3$.
