Bill > HB753

This bill creates a Class 3 misdemeanor for any person who smokes, including the use of marijuana, in the presence of a minor under the age of 15 and directly exposes the minor to secondhand smoke. The bill also allows a conviction for smoking in the presence of a minor or a conviction for smoking in a vehicle with a minor present to be admissible in any proceeding where child abuse and neglect are alleged. Additionally, the bill amends an existing law that prohibits smoking in a vehicle with a minor under the age of 15 present, making such a violation punishable by a civil penalty of $100.
