Betty Roberts Retired Oregon Supreme Court Justice “I am not a smoker, hut Measure 6 concerns me. “I strongly believe this proposed measure to be a threat to the individual liberties of Oregonians. I felt 1 should share my thoughts w ith you in the hope that you w ill carefully examine the impacts of Measure 6. “Measure 6 would eliminate all desig nated smoking areas statewide, banning smoking in virtually all public places and all workplaces - even those in private homes where customers occasionally visit. “Oregon's 1 OS 1 C lean Air Act has already established public separation for smokers and non-smokers and it has been well implemented through rational discussion within the legislative process. In response, Oregon com panies have provided smoking and non-smoking areas. “The present system is working. Why change it? “Measure 6 would force employers into policing employees and cus tomers, by holding employers responsible for all smoking behavior on their premises. “Measure 6 would establish fines up to $500 and even bring about arrest of those w ho ignore citations. I low w ill our already overburdened law enforcement system handle this new caseload? “Let's keep our designated smoking areas and preserve freedom of choice. “Let’s vote no on 6!" , • • « 1 ' ;• * * -1 ■ .
