What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, with certain exceptions, a person who has not attained the

legal drinking age of 21 years (underage person), and who is not accompanied by his

or her parent, guardian, or spouse who has attained the legal drinking age, may not

knowingly possess or consume alcohol beverages and may not enter or be on any

premises for which a license or permit for the retail sale of alcohol beverages has been

issued (licensed premises). Also, no person, including a licensee or permittee, may

procure for, sell, dispense, or give away (provide) alcohol beverages to an underage

person who is not accompanied by his or her parent, guardian, or spouse who has

attained the legal drinking age.

Under this bill, an underage person accompanied by a parent, guardian, or

spouse who has attained the legal drinking age may possess, consume, or be provided

alcohol beverages on licensed premises only if the underage person is at least 18

years of age. An underage person of any age may still enter or be on licensed premises

if accompanied by a parent, guardian, or spouse who has attained the legal drinking

age.
