Bill Summary
AN ACT relating to alcoholic beverages; providing that industry representatives and licensees may donate or gift alcoholic beverages as specified; making conforming amendments; and providing for an effective date.
AI Summary
This bill allows industry representatives and licensed businesses that sell alcoholic beverages to donate or gift these beverages to nonprofit organizations for charitable purposes, provided the nonprofit is qualified as tax-exempt under the Internal Revenue Code and uses any proceeds from the donated beverages solely for charitable activities, all with prior approval from the relevant licensing authority; this change amends existing law (W.S. 12-5-402) which generally prohibits such gifts or loans of money or other things of value to retailers, and also creates a new section (W.S. 12-5-406) to specifically outline these new donation provisions, which will take effect on July 1, 2026.
