The Alabama Senate passed Senate Bill 9 on Thursday, officially expanding the state’s Clean Indoor Air Act to prohibit the use of electronic nicotine delivery systems in public spaces. Sponsored by Senator Gerald Allen, the legislation targets vaping in government buildings, restaurants, theaters, workplaces, and sports venues like Bryant-Denny Stadium. The bill now moves to the House chamber for final consideration.
Key Details
- The Penalty: Violators face a $25 fine.
- The Scope: Vaping is banned wherever cigarette smoking is currently prohibited.
- The Name Change: The law is renamed the “Vivian Davis Figures Clean Air Act.”
When does the Alabama vape ban start?
The bill has passed the Senate but is not yet law. It must still pass the House chamber and be signed by the Governor before enforcement begins.
