Alcohol tax tests Yakama Nation authority on nonmember sales
In Toppenish and Wapato Washington the Yakama Nation imposes a tax on alcohol sold on private land within the reservation and a 5000 license fee for distributors. Gov Locke opposes the move calling it potentially illegal while tribes seek to fund alcoholism programs. Some distributors have halted deliveries and local businesses warn of job losses and higher prices.
