Rep. Eddy Dempsey

Primary SB 800

Vetoed · Oklahoma Senate · Lead sponsor

Alcoholic beverages; retail spirits licensee; discounts; pricing. Emergency.

Maddy summaryThis bill would have updated Oklahoma laws governing the sale of alcoholic beverages by retail spirits, wine, and beer licensees. It establishes specific rules on when stores can operate, prohibiting sales on Thanksgiving and Christmas while allowing them on election days, and sets a minimum markup of 15% on spirits and wine to prevent below-cost pricing. The legislation also clarifies that using cash or nationally recognized credit cards does not count as selling on credit, restricts discounts to specific groups like military personnel, and limits how wholesalers can sell products on Sundays and major holidays. Although the bill was signed into law, it was subsequently vetoed by the Governor on May 28, 2024, meaning these changes did not take effect.
