This bill introduces a new section to chapter 66.24 RCW aimed at enhancing consumer protection against spiked drinks in establishments licensed by the liquor and cannabis board. It mandates that licensees, in areas designated as off-limits to individuals under 21 years of age, must offer drug testing devices for sale to customers. The bill outlines specific requirements for these devices, including ensuring they are not expired, allowing for reasonable pricing based on wholesale costs, and necessitating the posting of a notice indicating their availability. Additionally, it clarifies that licensees are not liable for defective or inaccurate test results and that violations of this section do not constitute a violation of the title.

The bill also defines key terms such as "controlled substances" and "drug testing devices," and specifies the types of licenses affected, including tavern, nightclub, hotel, and sports entertainment facility licenses. Furthermore, it requires the liquor and cannabis board to provide information on its website regarding the new requirements. The act is set to take effect on January 1, 2026.
