Kaine’s proposed smoking ban took a bit of a hit today in the Virginia House.

The new bill will allow smoking in any establishment where minors are not present, and apparently the governor isn’t too happy with it…

From the TD:

“The health of adults is important, too,” the governor said. “It’s not a minor’s health bill… it’s a Virginians health bill.”

Now that it has passed in the House, it will move on to the Senate.
