Can you believe the Ohio Restaurant Association would stoop this low?
They've partnered with Big Tobacco in a dirty tricks campaign to repeal all indoor clean air laws and replace them with a state law allowing smoking in many indoor places.
We all know by now that secondhand smoke is dangerous. According to the National Cancer Institute, secondhand smoke contains over 4,000 chemicals, more than 50 of which are known human carcinogens. And CNN recently reported that secondhand smoke kills at least 35,000 non-smokers every year.
Yet the Ohio Restaurant Association is actually trying to amend the state Constitution to guarantee the right to pollute indoor air with smoke calling it "reasonable" policy. Do you think that forcing customers, children, workers and senior citizens to breathe toxic smoke-filled air is reasonable?
Call on the Ohio Restaurant Association to protect your health. Sign the petition telling Ohio's Restaurant Association that you want the places where people eat, work and socialize to be smoke-free!
