21 added · 16 removedPlain-language change summary
The changes to SB 20-032 mainly clarify the age restrictions for employees selling alcohol at licensed retail establishments. Specifically, it confirms that employees under twenty-one years of age are not allowed to handle alcohol in liquor-licensed drugstores. This is important because it reinforces regulations around alcohol sales, ensuring that only those of legal age are involved in the handling of alcoholic beverages, thereby promoting responsible retail practices.
