(A) The City Council supports the American Cancer Society, American Heart Association, American Lung Association, and New Mexicans Concerned About Tobacco in supporting a strong statewide law that protects children, workers, and people with breathing problems from secondhand smoke in public places and workplaces, including restaurants and bars, and which does not preempt local communities from adopting local policies expanding statewide secondhand smoke protections.
(B) The City Council further urges the New Mexico Legislature and Governor to pursue an amendment to Tribal Gaming Compacts prohibiting smoking in casinos and other Tribal enterprises.
