(AP) Illinois lawmakers have quietly made it tougher for smokers to find a public place to light up and may have banned smoking in beer gardens altogether. The (Peoria) Journal Star reports that a committee of lawmakers has tweaked a definition in the Smoke-Free Illinois Act to ban smoking in any public place with a floor and ceiling – whether or not the walls are retractable or permeable. The state’s Department of Public Health had asked for the clarification of a definition of the Smoke Free Illinois Act because the wording has long been so vague that it has proven all but impossible to enforce since it took effect in 2008.
