Casino workers in Atlantic City sue state to overturn smoking exemption in indoor clean air law.
Casino workers in Atlantic City have filed a lawsuit against the state, aiming to overturn a law that exempts casino halls from New Jersey's indoor clean air law. The United Auto Workers and a group of casino workers have challenged the law, which permits Atlantic City's gambling halls to have smoking sections, arguing that it exposes casino workers to life-threatening illnesses and death. The lawsuit seeks to have the exemption declared unconstitutional, citing equal protection under the law.
