Bill > AB1982

This bill extends indefinitely the requirement for establishments holding a Type 48 on-sale general public premises license, which are places like bars and nightclubs that sell alcohol for consumption on-site, to offer drug testing devices for sale to their customers. These devices are designed to detect controlled substances in drinks, such as flunitrazepam and ketamine, often referred to as "date rape drugs." The bill removes a previous sunset clause that would have ended this requirement on January 1, 2027, meaning these businesses will continue to be mandated to sell these testing devices at a reasonable price and post a notice informing customers of their availability, with the state's Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control providing information on its website about these obligations.
