The governor wants the bill rewritten to include liquor license reforms
The video from PBS, titled "Murphy Vetoes Bill to Ease Brewery Rules," discusses New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy's decision to veto a bill that would have relaxed regulations on breweries in the state. The vetoed legislation, known as the "Reform Act," aimed to allow breweries more freedom in hosting events and selling food, which supporters argued would help small businesses thrive. Governor Murphy's veto was based on concerns that the bill would undermine the three-tier alcohol distribution system, potentially leading to unfair competition and benefiting larger breweries over smaller ones. The video includes interviews with brewery owners expressing disappointment and frustration over the veto, highlighting the ongoing debate between supporting local businesses and maintaining regulatory control over alcohol sales.
