Ahead of Labor Day, Cynthia Hallett, president and CEO of Americans for Nonsmokers’ Rights, issued the following statement:
“Labor Day weekend is not just a busy time for Atlantic City casinos, but a chance to recognize the contributions and sacrifices of workers. Because of inaction from New Jersey legislators, Atlantic City casino workers are making too big of a sacrifice that no other worker in New Jersey must make -- choosing between their health and a paycheck.
“Not only does allowing smoking indoors at casinos contradict well-established public health principles, but it also disproportionately hurts Black and Brown, as well as female, casino workers who are forced to breathe secondhand smoke for hours on end while they work, even as the number of COVID cases is rising once again. It is unconscionable to keep in place harmful indoor smoking policies, especially in the midst of a respiratory-centric pandemic that has exposed and severely exacerbated health disparities among communities that largely make up the industry’s frontline workers.
“We are building a diverse coalition of lawmakers, casino workers, businesses, and others who will help us make inaction unacceptable, and together we will prove to be more powerful than even the deepest to***co industry pockets that are shamelessly trying to keep lawmakers from doing the right, common sense thing. State legislators will have no choice but to pass this legislation during the lame duck session later this year. Tired industry arguments to keep indoor smoking no longer carry weight, especially since Atlantic City casinos thrived while operating smokefree.
“It is long past time to close the casino loophole and until legislators act, their statements and social media posts in support of workers will ring hollow.”
