Smoke Em’ If You Got Em’ Cuase You Might Not Be Able to Soon

There are now two smoking ban bills up for voting, one from SmokeFree Ohio and one from Smoke Less Ohio. PD gives the breakdown…

“The SmokeFree Ohio proposal would ban smoking in all workplaces. Smoke Less would also ban smoking indoors, but exempt bars, some restaurants, bingo halls and bowling alleys. The measure would also repeal 21 local smoking bans already in place in Ohio.”
