Group opposes amending Baytown smoking ban
Smoke Free Baytown Coalition pushes voters to keep the city wide ban, naming Dr. Rebecca Glady as spokesperson for a Vote No for Proposition 1 effort. Backed by ACS, AHA, ALA, and San Jacinto Methodist Hospital, they warn amendments threaten workers’ health from second hand smoke in stand-alone bars. A 2006 Surgeon General report warned of up to 4000 chemicals, including at least 60 linked to cancer. See smoke page 3A.
