  • But residents were skeptical that regulations would soon change

The video from PBS discusses a recent poll indicating that a majority of New Jersey residents support reforming the state's liquor license laws. Currently, New Jersey has a restrictive system that limits the number of liquor licenses available, leading to high costs for businesses wishing to obtain one. The poll, conducted by the William J. Hughes Center for Public Policy at Stockton University, found that 71% of respondents favor changes to the current system. Proposed reforms include increasing the number of available licenses and reducing their cost, which could benefit small businesses and potentially revitalize local economies. The video also features interviews with local business owners and policymakers discussing the potential impacts of these changes.
