Michigan passes smoke-free air law!!

The Michigan Legislature passed a long-awaited statewide law this week.

It includes all bars, restaurants, workplaces. There are only a few exemptions that include three Detroit casinos, cigar bars, tobacco specialty shops, home offices and motor vehicles.

The law will take effect in May of 2010 (before WI's smoke-free air law goes into effect in July)
