在新泽西州立法机关，参议院卫生委员会在停滞三年后批准了大西洋城赌场禁烟法案，引发赌场工作人员之间的对抗。 In the New Jersey Legislature, the Senate health committee approved a bill to ban smoking in Atlantic City's casinos after three years of stagnation, sparking confrontations among casino workers.
新泽西州参议院卫生委员会最近批准了一项拖延已久的法案，如果获得通过，将在大西洋城的所有九家赌场实施禁烟令。 The New Jersey Senate health committee recently approved a long-delayed bill that, if passed, would impose a smoking ban in all nine casinos in Atlantic City. 在此之前，这项措施已经实施了三年，但毫无进展，而实施赌场禁令的运动已进入第四个年头。 This comes after three years of the measure going nowhere and as the movement to implement a ban in the casinos enters its fourth year. 该法案的支持者一直主张为经常接触二手烟的赌场工作人员提供更好的工作条件，而反对者则声称这样的禁令将给该市带来经济上的损害。 Supporters of the bill have been advocating for better working conditions for casino workers who are consistently exposed to second-hand smoke, while opponents claim that such a ban would be economically detrimental to the city.
