Tavern Fans! đĽ Our KY state lawmakers just passed House Bill 9 (HB 9) out of the House, and itâs now headed to the Senate. This bill adds a huge new 4% tax burden (on top of the 6% sales tax for alcoholic drinks!) and removes taxes from big distilling corporations.
That means higher drink prices for all of usâright when weâre trying to keep nights out affordable for our community. Itâs bad policy that punishes local businesses and the customers we love serving.
Please help us fight this! Take 60 seconds and call your state representative at 502-564-8100. Tell them to OPPOSE HB 9. Your voice can protect our local spots and keep costs from skyrocketing. Thank youâweâre in this together! â¤ď¸ PLEASE SHARE
