Plain-language change summary

The changes to Bill HB 1483 removed the allowance for employees under age 21 to taste or consume liquor while keeping the authorization for them to sell or serve it. This matters because it limits the involvement of younger employees in the alcohol industry, promoting safer practices while still allowing them to work in roles where they serve alcohol.
