Veterans

SB 344 amends Oklahoma law to expand exemptions allowing retail wine and beer sellers to offer certain promotions to customers. It specifically permits discounts for veterans, active military personnel, and individuals in specific professions, as well as packaging goods with alcohol (like branded items). However, these discounts cannot drop the price below a 6% markup on the beverage alone, and prepackaged items with alcohol must not be sold at a higher price than the beverage alone. The bill directly affects businesses holding retail wine or beer licenses, such as stores and restaurants, and takes effect November 1, 2025.
