Sen. Ellie Boldman, D-Missoula, and Rep. Ed Buttrey, R-Great Falls, co-sponsored Senate Bill 320.
âThis isnât meant to be some kind of new beer and wine delivery service,â Boldman said during a House committee hearing on the bill Thursday. âItâs just meant so that mom and pop restaurants - when a lot of folks now are ordering food at home - that they can also go ahead and get beer and wine delivered.â
Under the bill, to have beer or wine delivered, the cost of the alcohol just canât exceed the cost of the food.
John Iverson spoke on behalf of the Montana Tavern Association in support of the bill, pointing out that people can already have drinks delivered on resort property.
