Bill No. 2799 amends Section 6-103 of the Oklahoma Alcoholic Beverage Control Act, specifically targeting the prohibited acts of retail spirits licensees. The bill removes the previous restriction that prevented retail spirits licensees from selling spirits in cities or towns with populations of 200 or fewer, thereby allowing such sales in smaller municipalities. Additionally, it modifies the numbering of the prohibitions, changing the designation of the fifth and sixth points in the list of prohibited acts. The bill also clarifies the definitions of payment methods and the conditions under which retail spirits licensees can offer promotions related to alcoholic beverages.

The bill maintains existing regulations regarding the sale of alcoholic beverages, including the hours of operation and restrictions on sales during certain holidays. It continues to prohibit the sale of alcoholic beverages on credit and the acceptance of dishonored checks. Furthermore, it reinforces the age restrictions for entry into licensed premises, allowing exceptions for employees of licensed distributors under specific conditions. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
