My own state has been drinking the no smoking Kool-Aid.
The Indiana House has approved legislation that would establish a statewide ban on most indoor smoking.
The bill passed… but on an unrecorded vote.
Cowards!
It was attached as an amendment to a major health care bill that may eventually include a cigarette tax.
It would prohibit smoking in enclosed public places, sports arenas and indoor places of employment.
Thankfully it would not apply to retail tobacco stores, bars, public areas leased for private functions or a business that has no employee other than the owner.
Still it’s a precedent I’d rather not set.
The bill is eligible for passage in the House tomorrow and according to the news is likely headed to a joint House-Senate conference committee where compromises will be sought.
Wish me and my fellow Hoosiers luck as we try to avoid this slippery slope.
