TRENTON – A bill sponsored by Senators John Adler, Shirley K. Turner and Joseph F. Vitale which would eliminate the smoking ban exemption for New Jersey casinos and simulcasting facilities was approved by the Senate today by a vote of 35-0.
“Today’s Senate action is a huge win for New Jersey,” said Senator Adler, D-Cherry Hill. “It sends the message that the public interest, and our health, is our most important priority. With this vote, we guarantee smoke-free indoor air, not just for casino patrons, but employees who risk their health just by going to work.”
