This bill amends existing law to permit individuals under the age of 21 to enter veterans' clubs, private clubs, and social clubs under specific conditions. The new legal language allows minors to be present in these establishments if they are accompanied by a parent, legal guardian, or adult spouse, and if the adult has signed them into the club and listed their ages. Additionally, individuals under 21 who present a valid military identification card will not need to be accompanied by an adult.

The bill also modifies the current restrictions on minors in these venues by changing the age limit from under 18 to under 21, allowing those under 21 to access rentable rooms approved by the commission when beverages are served, without the need for a parent or guardian present, provided the club is using a supplemental license. The effective date of this act is set for 60 days after its passage.
