Bill Summary
A bill for an act relating to liquor; allowing nursing homes and assisted living facilities to allow consumption and display of alcoholic beverages; proposing coding for new law in Minnesota Statutes, chapter 340A.
AI Summary
This bill allows nursing homes and assisted living facilities, which are types of residential care facilities for the elderly or those needing medical assistance, to permit their residents to consume and display alcoholic beverages without needing a special license. This is permitted as long as the alcohol is only for residents, consumed or displayed at resident-focused activities, no one under 21 is allowed to drink it, any staff serving it are at least 18 years old, and the alcohol is not sold or given away as part of a business transaction. This change is proposed to be added to Minnesota Statutes, chapter 340A, which governs liquor laws in the state.
