From WCPO’s Website:
Among the businesses impacted by the smoking ban approved last year by Ohio voters are cigar bars.
They too are smoke-free, but an effort to grant them a smoking exemption is underway.
They are working at both the local and the state level to find an exemption to cigar bars. If you live in Ohio please call your local Senators and ask them to support the exemption (SB No 195). If you are unsure of your Ohio Senator check here.
Senator Gary Cates of West Chester is sponsoring the bill.
Cincinnati Enquirer has an article on the push for the exemption.
Update: I’m moving this back to the top of the page, because it deserves the attention.

Good Luck to everyone in Ohio. Give them Hell!
Hey what about some helping finding out how to get everyone together to gets this ban changed for small neighborhood bars that are losing customers at a fast pace!!! Let’s all get together and help each other out!
No coincidence that there’s a fantastic cigar bar in West Chester!
I’m considering opening a Cigar Store the east side since we don’t really having anything. I’d love to make it a cigar bar, so I’m hoping for a miracle.
