Saturday, July 5 marks the 15th anniversary of Wisconsin's smoke-free indoor air law, and the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) is celebrating the ways it has protected and improved health of our state's residents.

"Whether working a shift at a local restaurant or heading out with family for a Friday fish fry, Wisconsinites and visitors to our state can rest easy knowing they won't be exposed to secondhand smoke in public places," said State Health Officer and Division of Public Health Administrator Paula Tran. "Smoke-free businesses have become so normal for today's kids, it's hard for them to believe that smoking was once allowed in Wisconsin restaurants or on airplanes."

Along with making the air cleaner in public places, the smoke-free law also normalizes tobacco-free environments for our kids and discourages them from using commercial tobacco products. Additionally, smoke-free air laws are linked to a reduction in health issues and hospital stays for restaurant and bar workers, and others affected by secondhand smoke, as well as a reduction in hospital costs.
