"Some state lawmakers are seeking exemptions to the ban. One proposal would allow smoking in clubs. Another would let bars and casinos buy special licenses to opt out of the ban. One suggestion is to exempt semi-private organizations such as the VFW if members vote to do so.
Those measures were debated last week in a House committee but won't come up for a vote until this week or later.
Bar owners here reported Monday that revenue is down between 30 and 50 percent. The casino industry claims the ban already has caused at least a 17 percent drop in Illinois gaming business after just six weeks."
