The ABC affiliate reports Branson currently has the second highest smoking rate in Missouri, and there are currently 25 cities, including Springfield, across the state with similar smoking bans.

In a survey, 87 percent of Branson visitors said it is important that hotels and restaurants are smoke free, according to KSPR, and the alliance is seeking to extend such measures across all businesses.
