Senate Bill No. 520 amends existing regulations concerning alcoholic beverage licenses in Oklahoma. The bill introduces the term "knowingly" to clarify the responsibility of licensees regarding the receipt, possession, or sale of alcoholic beverages, ensuring that they only engage in these activities as authorized by the Oklahoma Alcoholic Beverage Control Act. Additionally, the bill outlines specific prohibitions for licensees, including the employment of individuals under certain ages in the sale of alcoholic beverages, the use of inducements to stimulate consumption, and allowing patrons to exit licensed premises with open containers, with certain exceptions during designated events.

Furthermore, the bill establishes guidelines for self-pour service of beer and wine from automated devices, requiring licensees to monitor and control the dispensing process. It mandates the use of radio frequency identification (RFID) devices for patrons to access these services, ensuring that only individuals over the age of 21 can utilize them. The bill also provides exceptions for allowing patrons to leave with open containers during specific events, such as home football games or municipally sanctioned events, provided that proper notifications are made to the ABLE Commission. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
