Kentuckians for Commonsense Alcohol Policy

@KentuckyCap

KentuckyCAP supports policy that acknowledges the reality around alcohol—it's different and treated so for a reason. KY needs effective, commonsense regulation.

Senate L&O approves #HB136 and preserves the compromise that respects all sides of the issue. Thank you to @repkoenig for his leadership on this issue! #kyga18


Hearing that the Senate will move #HB136 this week. @KentuckyCap is hopeful the commonsense compromise from the House will be preserved! #kyga18


Kentucky’s three-tier system promotes compliance and transparency when it comes to alcohol. #HB136 attacks our commonsense structure—risking tax dollars, jobs, and peace of mind. #kyga18


#HB136 undermines commonsense alcohol policy and the three-tier system designed to ensure the safe, responsible sale of alcohol to appropriate consumers in reasonable amount. No cap—no control. Vote NO on #HB136! #kyga18


#HB136 will allow unfettered sales into unlicensed premises without prior approval from local jurisdictions. Alcohol is different & local citizens, not profit-minded businesses, should decide local alcohol policy. Don’t let #HB136 endanger our communities #kyga18

Kentucky’s three tier system strikes important balance between the wide variety of stakeholders. #HB136 attacks this balance and overrules Kentuckians. It’s time for compromise—respect everyone’s perspective. #kyga18


#HB136 opens the door to unlimited, unregulated, and potentially untaxed alcohol sales across #Kentucky—disadvantaging compliant retailers and disregarding our tradition of local control, & public opinion. Join @KentuckyCAP in opposing reckless deregulation of alcohol in #kyga18

If #HB136 opens the door to unlimited, unlicensed, unregulated sales across #Kentucky, alcohol will flow in as tax revenues flow out. Sales can’t be audited or verified if they can’t be tracked. Oppose #HB136 – no cap, no accountability. KY can’t afford it. #kyga18


Unlimited, unlicensed, and potentially untaxed alcohol sales run counter to #Kentucky values, priorities & needs, but that’s what we get with #HB136. Legislators should vote NO & protect local control over alcohol sales. #kyga18

.@WesleyMorganKY, Rep. Santoro, @DennisKeene, Rep. Palumbo, and @KYAlGentry are all right—#HB136 needs to be improved to reflect reality: Kentuckians don’t want direct shipment of alcohol. Respect their voice! #kyga18


Sad to see #HB136 pass committee. This policy is not in Kentucky’s best interest and is a back door to direct shipment. Alcohol policy must respect local attitudes and commonsense. Taking this fight to the floor. #kyga18


Alcohol is different and needs different rules. Compromise is the solution. #HB136 dismantled a system that protects consumers and communities. #kyga18


Kentucky alcohol policy should respect all perspectives and ensure that communities can retain their voice. #HB136 runs rampant over local control. #kyga18


Woah! Testimony from an attorney says that #HB136 would open up direct shipment! #kyga18


The more we hear, the more it sounds like #HB136 is a backdoor attempt at direct shipment—turning every Kentucky county wet overnight. Is that in Kentucky’s best interest? #kyga18
