Modifies provisions relating to supervised alcohol consumption by certain persons
HB 1443 modifies Missouri's alcohol laws to clarify when adults may legally provide alcohol to minors aged 18-20 under specific supervision. It makes it a misdemeanor to supply alcohol to anyone under 21, intoxicated persons, or habitual drunkards - except when an adult (parent, guardian, or spouse aged 21+) directly supervises a 18-20 year old in a public or licensed setting. The bill also specifies that businesses cannot lose licenses for minor-sale convictions by employees, and presumes sealed alcohol containers contain alcohol without requiring testing. These changes primarily affect minors aged 18-20, licensed establishments, and adults providing supervised alcohol consumption.
