Service began as an economic lifeline for restaurants and bars during pandemic; new start date is Jan. 1.
To-go cocktails in sealed containers, approved as an economic lifeline for restaurants and bars, may well become a permanent feature after the coronavirus pandemic under a bill that has cleared both houses of the Oregon Legislature.
A 51-7 vote of the House on Tuesday, June 1, sent Senate Bill 317 to Gov. Kate Brown.
It originated during a third special session of the Legislature on Dec. 21. But that law is set to expire 60 days after Brown rescinds her pandemic emergency orders, now due to end June 28. Brown has said she would lift most restrictions on businesses if 70% of Oregonians age 16 and older receive at least one vaccination against COVID-19.
