As Hallett clarified, &#8220;This worker-driven movement&#8230;is gaining strength as employees are no longer prepared to select between their health and employment.&#8221;  With increasing momentum, ANR implored the Kansas House to pass the legislation and deliver it to Governor Kelly.<\/p>\n<p>Previous autumn, the push for smoke-free casinos extended beyond New Jersey with the establishment of CEASE branches in Rhode Island and Pennsylvania, illustrating the expanding national scope of this employee-led initiative. <\/p>\n<p>From that first meeting, they have maintained consistent communication with gambling establishment personnel spanning from Kansas to Virginia, Nevada to Indiana. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is not merely an isolated incident,&#8221; remarks Pete Nacarelli, co-founder of CEASE, &#8220;It&#8217;s a growing trend.&#8221; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S. Nonsmokers&#8217; Rights Organization (ANR) commended the Kansas Senate for approving legislation that would prohibit smoking within casinos.
