2009 House Bill 5059

Authorize local per-drink liquor taxes

Introduced in the House

June 9, 2009

Introduced by Rep. Marie Donigan (D-26)

To authorize local excise taxes of up to 50-cents per glass on alcohol sold by the glass. A local government would have to place a proposal for the tax on the general election ballot, and could do so if 20 percent of the number of voters for Secretary of State in the last election petitioned for it.

Referred to the Committee on Tax Policy
