Arkansas Official Launches Anti-Smoking Ballot Issue

Pine Bluff, Arkansas Alderman Bruce Locket hopes to collect 2,000 signatures to place on the November 2020 ballot a proposal to ban smoking at the Saracen Casino Resort (l.), now under construction. The community’s city council recently voted 6-1 to reject Lockett's proposed anti-smoking ordinance. The Saracen Annex will open this month followed by the main casino in December.
