The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 431, aims to amend Title 30 of the general statutes to mandate that all alcoholic liquor containers display warning labels. These labels will inform consumers that the consumption of alcohol is associated with an increased risk of certain cancers.
This legislative change seeks to enhance public awareness regarding the health risks linked to alcohol consumption, specifically its connection to cancer. The bill does not indicate any deletions from current law but introduces new legal language requiring the inclusion of these cancer risk warning labels on alcoholic beverage containers.
