And boom 💥, it passes Finance and heads to the next committee! #ncpol #ncga

[Mary Helen Morrow @MaryHelenMorrow]

Will North Carolina get happy hours? The bill legalizing happy hour and to-go drinks (like we saw in COVID) is about to be heard in House Finance. Last night, however, it was removed from the House Rules list, which is where it would go from here if approved #ncpol #ncga

[North Carolina Bar Owners Association @ncbarowners]

“The 2-1 majority agreed that bar owners had made a sufficient claim that the shutdown violated their constitutional rights to the enjoyment of the "fruits of their own labor."”

Our ABC system needs a massive makeover! Let's step into the future and give the alcohol industry the freedom it deserves. Localities should choose their own Sunday and holiday policies. #ncga #ncpol #ModernizeABC 🍻

[The Charlotte Observer @theobserver]

You can only buy liquor at state-governed ABC stores in North Carolina, so if you need booze for your holiday celebration, plan ahead. https://t.co/CZ2v4o1775

[North Carolina Bar Owners Association @ncbarowners]

North Carolina continues to be stuck in the prohibition era by refusing to modernize our outdated ABC system and allow the free market to operate.

[The News & Observer @newsobserver]

If you want to buy hard liquor for your Fourth of July celebration, you might need to plan ahead (or settle for something a little softer). https://t.co/8gDdBFQWht

[North Carolina Bar Owners Association @ncbarowners]

We are very happy with the omnibus and have enjoyed being a part of the process to get a lot of these ideas into legislation that we hope to see passed this year!

[Paul Woolverton @FO_Woolverton]

At 11 a.m., the House Alcoholic Beverage Control Committee will consider whether to legalize ABC liquor store sales on Sundays and holidays.

SPACE

WHISKEY

(and a general loosening of #ncga #ncpol alcohol regs, including Sunday sales and legalizing happy hours and other stuff I probably haven't fully absorbed yet, holler if there are giveaways)

Could NC finally legalize happy hour? Tune in tonight at 11p on @WNCN for the latest effort to modernize ABC laws.. and what businesses have to say about it.

States had a big decision to make in 1933 when the U.S. ended Prohibition: How would liquor be sold? https://t.co/0py8Q6hwoh

[raleighsmag @Raleighsmag]

Ever wanted a daytime drink before 5pm with a client or friend? We have a tearout card (in partnership with 10th & Terrace) of bars that start serving alcohol at 3/4pm. ... And have a drink with us March 9, 4pm, at 10th & Terrace!
