As of 2010, 26 states in the U.S. impose a comprehensive ban on smoking in restaurants, bars and the workplace. This number represents a dramatic increase from the beginning of the decade: in 2000, zero states enforced such a ban.

The CDC is optimistic about these figures. Based on the current pace of anti-smoking legislation, officials believe indoor smoking could be completely banned throughout the nation by 2020.
