SAN FRANCISCO, June 23, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Alcohol Justice and the California Alcohol Policy Alliance (CAPA) condemned a one-person majority vote of the California State Assembly Governmental Organization Committee (GO) yesterday to allow SB 930 to proceed. The "gut & amend" bill is Senator Scott Wiener's 4th attempt to disrupt the protections of uniform 2 a.m. last call in California by launching a 7-city pilot program to generate nightlife alcohol sales profits at the expense of public health and safety. All of his previous attempts have failed.

Key Points: 
  • The "gut & amend" bill is Senator Scott Wiener's 4th attempt to disrupt the protections of uniform 2 a.m. last call in California by launching a 7-city pilot program to generate nightlife alcohol sales profits at the expense of public health and safety.
  • In reality, SB 930 will spread alcohol overconsumption, loss of life, injury, and nuisance across the state.
  • Last call timeswhat the scientific literature calls "trading hours"are a backbone of maintaining alcohol as a safe and legal product.
  • While the public and all levels of government will be forced to continue to cover the costs of cleaning up the mess that follows.
