The purpose of this petition is to request that the current smoke-free ordinance for the city of Killeen, Texas be changed to prohibit smoking in public indoor areas.

To date, smoking is allowed in bars, bingo halls, pool halls and bowling alleys in the city of Killeen

According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 41,000 people die each year due to second-hand smoke (SHS) exposure. SHS is know to cause lung cancer, stroke and heart disease in adults. There is no safe level of SHS exposure.

I believe that employees and customers in the city of Killeen deserve to breathe clean air while working at/visiting these public establishments.

Thank you for your time and support!
