Bill overview
This bill modifies the New Jersey Smoke-Free Air Act to allow for smoking in designated areas within casinos and casino simulcasting facilities.

The bill also includes exemptions for cigar bars that meet specific revenue and registration criteria, as well as research laboratories and golf courses. It establishes a 18-month implementation timeline for the changes.
