ANNOTATION
The Colorado Clean Indoor Air Act's (CCIAA) airport smoking concession exemption does not violate the equal protection clause of the fourteenth amendment to the U.S. constitution. The Colorado legislature, by exempting airport smoking concessions from the CCIAA's operation, rationally distinguished those concessions from the majority of other indoor facilities in the state that are open to the public. Coal. for Equal Rights, Inc. v. Ritter, 517 F.3d 1195 (10th Cir. 2008).
The CCIAA does not violate due process by infringing on the use of property of bar and restaurant owners. Coal. for Equal Rights, Inc. v. Owens, 458 F. Supp. 2d 1251 (D. Colo. 2006), aff'd sub nom. Coal. for Equal Rights, Inc. v. Ritter, 517 F.3d 1195 (10th Cir. 2008).
The CCIAA does not consist of more than one subject. On its face, the CCIAA's addresses the health risks of indoor secondhand smoke. Even assuming the CCIAA's exemptions are based in part on economic concerns, it does not violate art. V, § 21, of the constitution. Coal. for Equal Rights v. Owens, 458 F. Supp. 2d 1251 (D. Colo. 2006), aff'd sub nom. Coal. for Equal Rights, Inc. v. Ritter, 517 F.3d 1195 (10th Cir. 2008).
