Bill Would Ban Smoking in Apartments, Condos

California would ban smoking indoors for people living in townhouses, condos, apartments and other attached units under a bill introduced by state Assembly member Marc Levine.

If approved, it would be the strictest anti-smoking law in the country. We’ll talk to Levine and an opponent of the idea.
