LAWMAKER TO PASS THE
WINE SHIPPING BILL NOW
TIME FOR MICHIGAN WINE LOVERS TO ACT
Senate Bill 819 and its companion in the House, HB 5579, would finally allow Michigan wine consumers to receive wine shipments from out-of-state wine retailers, wine clubs, and wine auction house. However, members of the House and Senate Regulatory Reform committees where the bills must first receive hearings need to know that Michigan wine lovers support these bills and demand the right to receive wine shipments from out-of-state vendors.

THE PROBLEM
Because Michigan law bars you from receiving wine shipments from out-of-state wine retailers, wine clubs and auction house, there are literally hundreds of thousands of wines sold in the U.S. that Michigan wine lovers are barred from possessing. The Michigan middleman wine wholesalers have worked to keep this ban in place for more than a decade and will fight this proposed law to let you obtain the wines you want. They simply don't want the competition and believe you should only have access to the wines they sell.
WE NEED TO LET KEY LAWMAKERS KNOW CONSUMERS WANT WINE FREEDOM
Moreover, the current law banning you from receiving wine shipments from out-of-state wine retailers has TWICE been ruled unconstitutional by federal courts. The state of Michigan has spent over $1 Million defending this unconstitutional law.
IT CAN BE DONE
Michigan law currently allows you to receive shipments of wine direct from Michigan wineries, from Michigan wine retailers and from out-of-state wineries. But not out-of-state wine stores. It's time to change that! You can help do this by writing to key Michigan lawmakers.
