Statement on Proposed Changes to the Alcohol Beverage Control Laws

“The Business Council commends Governor Hochul’s budget initiatives to streamline the licensing process at the State Liquor Authority and amend outdated provisions in the Alcoholic Beverage Control Law (ABC),” said Paul Zuber, Executive Vice President. “We are encouraged both the governor and legislature will take this momentum and opportunity to review similar archaic provisions to the ABC laws, some of which have been in place since the end of prohibition and hurt economic development and limit markets for our New York wine and distilled spirits industry.”
