Alcohol Could Get Easier to Get for Minors in Texas
Manage episode 359362621 series 3413890
“Up to 50% of alcohol home deliveries go to minors” according to data from federal stings operations.
Join host Frank Santos and guest Lance as they discuss the pressing issue of illegal alcohol consumption and delivery, especially involving minors.
Lance, a veteran lobbyist, shares his passion for keeping alcohol out of the hands of minors and the challenges that come with it, especially with the rise of delivery services like Instacart and Favor.
With more proposed laws on the horizon threatening the current stable structure of alcohol distribution, Lance sheds light on the importance of maintaining a safe delivery system and protecting small businesses. While monster brands are pushing to “cut out the middle man” and sell direct-to-consumer with little to no restrictions, your local mom-and-pop liquor shop is barely treading water.
From the three-tier system to the philanthropy of local store owners, Lance and Frank explore the complexities of the alcohol industry and the potential dangers of direct-to-consumer sales.
