The Campaign for a Smoke-Free Oak Park consists of residents, businesses, organizations, and friends of Oak Park who are dedicated to raising awareness in the community about the dangers of secondhand smoke and increasing support for a smoke-free Oak Park to protect workers and patrons from the dangers of secondhand smoke.
Whereas:
► Secondhand smoke is the third leading cause of preventable death in this country, killing approximately 65,000 nonsmokers in the U.S. each year.
► Secondhand smoke contains over 4,000 chemicals, including 69 that cause cancer.
► Secondhand smoke is proven to aggravate asthma and increase the risk of cardiovasular diseases in children and adults.
We, the undersigned, believe that we have the right to breathe smoke-free indoor air and that to protect the health of our community, Oak Park, workplaces, including restaurants, must be smoke-free.
