Although non-smoking clients still had a lot of space, non-smoking casino employees who worked in that area had to deal with tobacco. Casino owners are quite unhappy about the prospects of smoking being banned as they fear that it will hurt their revenues. In turn, the anti-smoking movement points out that many casinos throughout the United States have banned tobacco and are yet to experience any income drop because of it.

Its supporters include lawmakers, business owners, and casino workers. Hallett is hellbent to use everything in her power to get the ban passed.

What is the point of a cloth mask if second hand smoke is flying through the air??? Many more customers do not smoke then those that do, and the cost of related employee health and casino 3rd hand smoke cleanup greatly exceeds any percieved financial benefit, so what is the real reason the casino wants to allow it?
Is the tobacco industry giving kickbacks or other incentives to casino execs or Sweeny? Please ban smoking. Thank you. After 14 months, I think the casinos can find a way to make it comfortable for all. I have mixed emotions about this. I am a smoker and fully understand the non smokers position. I know its disgusting, dangerous and honestly should be banned and cigarettes not sold anymore.
I wish i never started. I think all indoor smoking should be a thing of the past. We learn from our mistakes right guys?? Jennings non-smokers have rights too so don't give us that BS about don't gamble.
Smokers can take that crap outside. The slot machines and gaming tables will be there when you get back. We all have the right to breathe clean air It's time to get rid of indoor smoking across the board!! I think the smoking ban is not good for business Smoking, gambling and drinking go together and have been together for years. I understand that people dont want to be around smoke.. I havent gambled at all during this pandemic and if you continue this ban I will only gamble in vegas where I can smoke and I am sure a lot of people feel this way..
They tried getting rid of smoking it lasted 3 weeks and they had to bring it back the casinos lost too much money The ocean casino tried to make their casino a non smoking casino and they lost millions Dealers are the only workers in the whole workforce that are unfairly forced to breathe cigarette and cigar smoke day in and day out. Drink servers take an order and leave, serve the drinks and leave. They sit for hours and smoke and smoke or just let them burn in your face.
Pack after pack after pack. They should have to at least smoke away from the table. Put back the smoking rooms for the guests. Please care about our health and safety. Dealers deserve healthy working conditions just like all of the rest of the work force. I feel if people want to smoke let them go outside. It has been so nice being able to go to the casinos and not have to deal with that disgusting smell and getting a sore throat.
Please whoever agrees with me fight this. Ban smoking it's killing people , no where can you smoke indoors public places there are reasons for that! Please casino dealer lives matter too. As a smoker and a frequent AC gambler, I am fine with smoking limited to outside the casinos.
I look forward to stepping outside to have a smoke when I want one, and the break from playing is welcome as well. And the casinos are not losing money. Las Vegas casinos also closed in March , and some groups called for a smoking ban when they could reopen less than three months later.
