Most law firms avoid posting jobs on Indeed or LinkedIn due to high costs. Instead, they publish them on their own websites, bar association pages, and niche legal boards. LawCrossing finds these hidden jobs, giving you access to exclusive opportunities. Sign up now!
"It's no longer fashionable to be smoking," said House Speaker Michael E. Busch. "When I was growing up in the 1960s and 1970s, it was a different thing—you were strange if you didn't smoke. But now there's no longer a question about the carcinogenic effect of tobacco. Jurisdictions around the state were already starting to do it. States around the country were already doing it. The time had come."
The new law, which bans smoking from bars, restaurants and private clubs such as American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars halls, also closes a loophole in a 1995 rule which had exempted bars and restaurants from the ban. And, according to articles on www.baltimoresun.com and http://hr.blr.com, the only places in Maryland where smoking will be allowed are tobacco shops and certain hotel and motel guest rooms.
All other businesses must be smoke free by Feb 1, 2008.
However, according to the same article in the Baltimore Sun, businesses who might suffer financially from the ban "would get a three-year extension, but they must be smoke-free by 2011."
