Quote of the Day

"For a casino worker, every day breathing second-hand smoke in the workplace is one too many. Everyone has the right to breathe smoke-free air — regardless of the color of their collar." — Americans for Nonsmokers Rights Executive Director Cynthia Hallett, reacting to a resolution passed by the National Council of Legislators from Gaming States. The NCLGS resolution urges constitutent states to make all gambling venues smoke-free workplaces and that smokeless gambling be a mandatory part of future tribal-state compacts. States that require smoke-free casinos are, at present, Illinois, Colorado and Delaware.
