Michigan's Smoke-Free Air Law

Beginning May 1, 2010, smoking is prohibited in most public places in Michigan. The law will cover any
workplace and any food service establishment. This law covers public places, including, but not limited to,
restaurants, bars, shopping malls, bowling alleys, concert halls, arenas, museums, mechanic shops,
health facilities, nursing homes, education facilities, and child care centers.

The Michigan legislature passed the Dr. Ron Davis Smoke-Free Air Law on December 10, 2009 to
preserve and improve the health, comfort, and environment of the people of the state by limiting
exposure to secondhand smoke.

The Smoke-Free Air Act will not serve as the only smoke free law in the state, but it does set forth
the essential requirements for indoor workplaces and public places where smoking is regulated and
these minimum standards apply state-wide. The statewide law does the following:
(1) establishes where people can smoke and where they can't if the local community is not currently
covered by any city or county law; and (2) ensures that any provision that are weaker in regional law,
compared to the state law, are now made at least as strong as the statewide law.
Cigar bars, tobacco specified retail stores, and the gaming floors of casinos may be granted exemptions
from the smoke free law.

The public health and well being of workers and customers alike is the best reason for state government
to ensure smoke-free businesses, including restaurants and bars. A clean air free from tobacco smoke
is good for Michigan residents, workers and visitors - and now - Michigan is serving to smoke free air.

2010年5月にミシガン州でレストラン、バー、ホテルやモーテル、公共交通機関、タクシーを全面禁煙とする
受動喫煙防止法を 実施した。デトロイト・カジノ、シガーバーはこの法令の適応外とした。ホテルの喫煙客室
を認めていないなど、ボストンと同じく、先進的である。今回の検証旅行では室内空間での全面禁煙は非常に
よく守られていたことを確認している。禁煙標識は意外と少ない。喫煙行為をホテルから排除できたことは、
クリーン・エアーという目的の他に、室内の清掃を容易にすること、喫煙客室と禁煙客室との割り振りに余分な
時間と労力を浪費しないで済むことなど、その利点も多く、ホテル側はそのことを非常に喜ばしいこととして
受け止めているように感じた。

ただ、タバコ販売に関し、隣のオンタリオ州では免税店を除き、シャッターでタバコを隠しているのに対し、
米国では、一番目につきやすいところに並べている日本ほどではないものの、堂々と販売している光景が
対照的であった。
