This resolution (HR 1499) is a procedural measure to allow a conference committee to work on Senate Bill 650. It suspends a specific House rule to let the committee omit certain text from Section 2 of S.B. 650 regarding age verification for alcohol sales at package stores. The omitted text required package store permit holders to visually inspect and access electronically readable information on IDs (like driver's licenses) to verify a purchaser's age. This change is necessary to streamline the conference committee's process for resolving differences between the House and Senate versions of S.B. 650. The resolution itself does not alter the substance of the alcohol sales law.
