New Law to Curtail Underage Keggers
A few young people in a small town in Iowa got together and talked it over and decided there was a way to stop underage drinking. They drew up a bill to track the beer kegs by using an identification sticker with a number placed on the keg at the time of the sale. Retailers would be required to keep records of those who purchased the kegs, as well as their addresses. That way if a keg was found where underage people were partying and drinking, the adult who purchased the keg would be held responsible. It made such headways, that it went to the Iowa House where they passed a bill on Wednesday to do just that. They hope it is an attempt to stop "all-night parties" with under 21 years of age young people are binge drinking. I think it is a good bill and it passed 88 to 10.
