    Keep St. Louis Free

    Uploaded by

    Bill Hannegan
    A proposed ordinance in St. Louis would ban smoking in nearly all public places, including restaurants, bars, casinos, and work vehicles. If passed, businesses could face $500 fines and liquor license revocation for violations. The proposal's opponents argue that similar bans in other areas have hurt businesses and cut revenues in bars, restaurants, and casinos significantly. They encourage contacting local aldermen and the mayor to stop the ban from being implemented.

    Stop the St. Louis City Smoking Ban!

    28th Ward Alderman Lyda Krewson has proposed an ordinance


    in the City of St. Louis that bans smoking nearly everywhere.

    Smoking would be banned in:


    • All restaurants, bars, bowling alleys, casinos, pool & bingo halls
    • Private clubs & organizations (VFW, union halls etc.)
    • Work vehicles, trucks, machinery and parking garages
    • Current designated smoking areas in workplaces and job sites

    Penalties: $500 fines and liquor license revocation!

    To STOP this ban, owners, staff & patrons must call today!

    Board of Alderman President Lewis Reed (314) 622-4114  reedl@stlouiscity.com

    The Illinois Licensed Beverage Association & the Illinois Casino Gaming Association say the
    Illinois smoking ban hurts bars across the state and drastically cuts casino revenues. Federal
    Reserve economist Dr. Michael Pakko says the Columbia MO smoking ban cut the overall
    restaurant trade 3.5 percent, restaurants that serve alcohol 6.5 percent, and bars 11 percent!
    Such losses can mean economic ruin for hospitality workers supporting families!

    Don’t let this happen to St. Louis!
