ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES – Repeals existing law to remove obsolete provisions regarding the prohibition and sale of liquors and wines.
This bill (H 799) repeals three outdated Idaho Code sections related to alcohol sales: Section 23-103 (about prior offenses), Section 23-215 (price list requirements for sellers), and Section 23-216 (attorney/agent rules for sellers). It directly affects alcohol sellers by removing obsolete regulatory requirements they no longer need to follow. The repeal streamlines Idaho’s alcohol laws as part of a broader cleanup effort, effective July 1, 2026. The bill is procedural and does not change current alcohol sales rules or create new obligations.
