(Lansing, MI) -- Starting on May 1st, it will be illegal to light up a smoke inside restaurants, bars and workplaces around Michigan. To get the word out, the state Department of Community Health has begun a Public Education Campaign. MDCH has launched a new website with details about the law, gives information for businesses on how to comply with it and answers the most common questions about the smoking ban. All of the state's casinos are exempt from the law on the gaming floors, as are vehicles, cigar bars, tobacco specialty shops and home offices.
