The bill bans smoking in______. [originaltext] (23)Georgia governor Sonny Per

(23)Georgia governor Sonny Perdue has signed a bill that bans smoking in most public places in the state. The new law limits smoking to just a few places such as bars and restaurants that exclude people under the age of 18. Smoking would also be permitted in designated hotel and motel rooms and in workplace smoking areas if they have a separate air circulating system. Governor Perdue has said recently that he didn’t like the bill because he believed that the state shouldn’t become what he called a nanny for all people.(24)Georgia now joins Florida, as one of the nation’s fourteen tobacco-growing states with the toughest laws against smoking in public places.
