Lyda Krewson's Smoking Ban

Keep St. Louis Free called all the bars and restaurants in Lyda Krewson's 28th Ward that allow smoking. They had not been consulted about her smoking ban plans and many were not pleased. Why has Lyda turned against the bars and restaurants in her ward? Will her proposed smoking ban include the casinos?

A St. Louis Federal Reserve economist says even a statewide smoking ban could cut bar employment up to 16 percent!
