According to Abc6onyourside.com, Senator Tina Maharath has presented this proposal to legislation with a fine of $500 to any violator to be fined. If a person is a repeat offender they could face another $500 fine plus $20 for each subsequent violation.

It hasn’t been determined whether vaping would be included but it does cover lighted cigar, cigarette, pipe or lighted smoking device for burning tobacco.
