Workers on Friday tried a new strategy, frustrated at having pestered lawmakers for more than three years without success to get them to outlaw smoking in Atlantic City casinos. They launched a lawsuit in an attempt to repeal a law that exempts casino employees alone from the clean workplace air act's protections.
The state of New Jersey's indoor clean air law was sued in state Superior Court by the United Auto Workers, who represent employees of the Bally's, Caesars, and Tropicana casinos as well as a group of casino employees who are against smoking in the gaming areas.
