Interim study into the potential effects of permitting liquor sales in grocery and convenience stores

This bill (LC 1235) was an interim study request to examine the potential impacts of allowing grocery and convenience stores to sell liquor. It did not create new laws or permit sales; it only proposed a study to gather data on effects like public safety, tax revenue, or business impacts. The bill was drafted, delayed multiple times, and ultimately died in the legislative process on May 24, 2025, without advancing further.
