from what i gather, there's an addendum to the bill that's ready to be signed... it would ALLOW smoking in public places IF certain stipulations are met and the owners pay a fee (tax) to allow smoking.
that would be perfectly fine with me, the addendum, but that hasn't been approved yet....
i do like how it says
"It would prohibit local communities from having a smoking ban that is stricter than the statewide law."
