New Jersey governor candidates differ on casino smoking ban
New Jersey gubernatorial candidates Mikie Sherrill and Jack Ciattarelli have set out opposing positions on a proposed indoor smoking ban at Atlantic City casinos. Sherrill supports a ban, while Ciattarelli says casinos and workers’ unions should decide; the source says a bill could reach outgoing Governor Phil Murphy before the legislature’s summer break, and Murphy has said he would sign it if passed.
The candidates’ positions and the bill’s possible timing affect casino workplace rules in Atlantic City.
