Electronic Cigarettes are the newest product added to NYC’s strict public smoking ban, hit the jump for more!
City Council heads have officially extended the public smoking ban to include E-Cigarettes:
The bill, which passed by an overwhelming majority, bans the devices in bars, restaraunts, parks and other public places where smoking is prohibited. The new law goes into effect in four months, the New York Times and CBS reported.
Those in support of the bill have stated their concerns “about second-hand vapor and that the nicotine viles, which are often sweetened, can addict children, the Times reported.”
