AI Summary

This bill amends Chapter 138 of the Massachusetts General Laws to provide that if any provision of the chapter is determined to be invalid or unconstitutional by a court, the remaining provisions shall be interpreted to further limit rather than expand commerce in alcoholic liquor and to enhance strict regulatory control over the taxation, distribution, and sale of alcoholic liquor through the three-tier regulatory system imposed by the Massachusetts liquor control act.
