LIQUOR TAX CHANGES

Summary

The bill adds a surcharge on liquor sold by retailers and reallocates the money: most goes to a local DWI grant, a set amount helps small municipalities fund alcohol‑treatment services, a portion supports drug courts, and the surtax revenue funds a new tribal alcohol‑harms alleviation fund. It also changes the state’s definition of "gross receipts" so that liquor excise taxes are no longer counted for that tax. The changes affect retailers, municipalities, tribal entities, and state tax calculations.
