SD 1760 Massachusetts Senate · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act relative to nature of alcohol licenses and permits

This bill amends Massachusetts law to change the language on alcohol licenses from "alcoholic beverage sales" to "all sales." The change directly affects businesses that hold alcohol licenses, such as bars and liquor stores, by broadening the terminology used in their permits. By updating the statutory language, the bill ensures that the licenses cover every type of sale associated with alcohol rather than limiting the description to just the act of selling. This adjustment does not alter the rules for obtaining or maintaining a license but updates the official definition to be more inclusive.
