Low

How often bills like it became law.

Not enough signal yet to read this bill's trajectory — we surface a likelihood only once there's real movement (stage, sponsorship, committee, or votes) to point to.

Prognosis reads this bill's own signals — stage, sponsorship breadth, committee status, recorded votes and cross-state momentum. Odds come from a model trained on which bills have become law.

In plain language

Requires retail liquor license applicants to provide email addresses for official notices.

The bill amends the Liquor Control Act to require liquor license applicants to submit email addresses for receiving notices. It also changes how notices for license revocation or suspension hearings are delivered, allowing electronic notification instead of just through mail.

What this means for you
  • Small Business: If you are a small business applying for a retail liquor license, you will need to provide your email for notification purposes.

Summary

Amends the Liquor Control Act of 1934. Requires an applicant for a retail license to provide the applicant's primary and supplementary email address to which all license-related notices may be served. Provides that certain licenses shall not be revoked or suspended except after a hearing by the State commission with reasonable notice to the licensee served by electronic or other reasonable means (instead of by registered or certified mail with return receipt requested) at least 10 days prior to the hearings at the last known place of business of the licensee or to the licensee's primary or supplemental email address and after an opportunity to appear and defend.
