An e-mail urges everyone to speak up for our right to decide, on the local level, whether we want smoke-free workplaces — and restaurants, for that matter:

Get on the phone, write a letter or get the email addresses at the link enclosed, or let me know & I will get them to you. Please forward this on to whomever you know who wants clean air & a safe workplace  for ALL South Carolinians. It is speak now or forever choke, stink & endure the cyanide, ammonia & other deadly chemicals that second-hand smoke carries with it.

Here’s the enclosed release that was mentioned. And here’s the State House link that the release mentions. And if you don’t know who your legislators are, click here.

OK, so maybe the message was a little over-the-top, but that doesn’t mean I don’t agree with the sentiment.
