(410 ILCS 85/2) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 8232)
Sec. 2.
Legislative Findings.
The General Assembly finds
that there is a need for public information about the risk of
harm to unborn children when women smoke cigarettes during
pregnancy. The United States Surgeon General has recommended
abstinence from cigarette smoking during pregnancy. Since the
adverse effects of cigarette smoking during pregnancy are
preventable, the General Assembly finds that it is in the public
interest to provide warnings at places where cigarettes are sold
about the risks of cigarette smoking during pregnancy.
