The bill amends the Kansas Indoor Clean Air Act to prohibit smoking on the gaming floor of lottery gaming facilities and racetrack gaming facilities. It expands the definition of "smoking" to include the use of electronic cigarettes and the burning of marijuana. Additionally, it modifies the definitions of various terms related to smoking regulations, such as "enclosed area," "public place," and "smoking," to ensure clarity and compliance with the new regulations.
Furthermore, the bill specifies that it is unlawful to smoke in enclosed areas or at public meetings, with certain exceptions for designated smoking areas in adult care homes and medical facilities. It also repeals existing sections of the law that are inconsistent with these changes. The bill aims to enhance public health by creating smoke-free environments in specific areas while allowing for designated smoking areas under regulated conditions.
