Pennsylvania casino workers gather at State Capital, call for passage of non-smoking bill

Pennsylvania casino employees are tired of working in smoking environments. On Tuesday, members of Casino Employees Against Smoking Effects rallied at the Capitol Building in Harrisburg urging lawmakers to pass the Protecting Workers from Secondhand Smoke Act.

A loophole in the the Clean Indoor Air Act of 2008 allowed smoking in designated areas on gaming floors inside Pennsylvania casinos. Allegheny County Democratic Rep. Dan Frankel introduced a bill last September that would eliminate it entirely.

There had appeared to be momentum as the bill passed through the House Committee last November, but it has been at a stand-still since.
