Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

3 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 0 costs, 3 mixed.

Bar rules clarified for small businesses

If 60% or more of your annual income is from alcohol sales or gambling, food service is incidental. Your place then counts as a bar under the law. An establishment means one enterprise under one roof with one responsible owner. This clarifies which businesses must follow indoor smoking rules.

Agency and covered entities clarified

The Department means the Department of Public Health and Human Services. Person includes individuals, businesses, and government bodies. This clarifies who enforces the law and who can be held responsible.

Vaping and marijuana banned in indoor places

The law treats vaping and marijuana use as smoking. You cannot use e-cigs, dab rigs, or vape pens in enclosed public places and workplaces. Covered places include restaurants, bars, offices, schools, buses, trains, hospitals, and arenas. Protections apply even in a single enclosed work room. The law is in effect now.
