Nebraska lawmaker pulls statewide smoking ban proposal
Lincoln Nebraska state lawmakers hold a final vote on a statewide workplace smoking ban but Sen. Joel Johnson pulls the measure two days before the session ends. The bill shifted to allow opt outs for cities and counties, drawing criticism from opponents and support from some anti smoking groups. Johnson cited risk of a patchwork law and enforcement issues. The bill will return in 2008, with opponents hoping for passage of a stricter version.
