The Iowa Veterans Home in Marshalltown would be required to allow all its residents to smoke, despite risking federal funding, according to a state Senate study bill passed this week by a legislative subcommittee.
The Veterans Home, one of the largest such facilities in the country, provides care and housing for up to 550 veterans. There are 412 residents there now.
Home administrators allowed 41 residents who started living there before the ban to continue to smoke in a designated area with supervision. The problem is, newer residents don’t think it’s fair they can’t smoke, too, despite having signed a pledge to adhere to the no-smoking policy.
