This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there are no live odds of enactment. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

Plain-language change summary

The latest version of House Bill 417 includes a new focus on imposing a liquor excise surtax on retailers, which will generate revenue specifically for a newly established Tribal Alcohol Harms Alleviation Fund. This change is significant because it aims to provide targeted support to address alcohol-related issues in tribal communities. Additionally, the bill alters the Local DWI Grant Program to become the Local Alcohol Harms Alleviation Program, indicating a broader approach to tackling alcohol-related harms at the community level. Overall, these amendments indicate a legislative push to enhance public health and safety regarding alcohol use.
