James R. Martin", "committee": "Commerce", "vote_yeas": 11, "vote_nays": 7, "text": "This bill amends the indoor smoking act to prohibit smoking in restaurants and cocktail lounges. The committee recognizes the serious health dangers of secondhand smoke. Second hand smoke causes a variety of serious and frequently fatal illnesses including lung cancer, emphysema and chronic bronchitis. These are collectively referred to as chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD). There are approximately 24 million Americans with COPD according to the National Institute of Health's National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute. COPD is rising in the United States, particularly among young people and women and is the fourth ranked killer in the United States. The total annual cost is estimated to be $40 billion annually, including $21 billion in direct medical costs. One-half of those diagnosed with COPD die within 10 years of diagnosis. Smoking in restaurants and cocktail lounges subjects not only the patrons but also the restaurant and cocktail lounge workers to sustained exposure to heavy concentrations of smoke and the toxins it contains. The committee heard testimony from young people, students, and women, including single moms who need the part time work and flexible hours available by working in restaurants. If they need a job, particularly in a small community, they often have no choice but to work in a restaurant which permits smoking. All too often they have to subject themselves to the very real risks of second hand smoke in order to obtain work. That is not right. The committee also heard testimony concerning the risks to young children who are taken into restaurants where smoking is permitted - children who are at high risk and who have no choice. The risks of second hand smoke are real and serious. Approximately 79 per cent of the citizens of New Hampshire have indicated their desire to have no smoking in restaurants and cocktail lounges. As legislators we should listen to the overwhelming wishes of our constituents including those who own and operate restaurants, restaurant workers and patrons."}, {"side": "Minority", "author": "Rep.
