Pennsylvania House Defeats 18 and 19 Year Drinking Age Bids
Harrisburg AP Two unexpected bids to trim Pennsylvania's drinking age failed in the House. A 122-60 vote blocked reducing to 18 and a 97-84 vote blocked cutting to 19. Supporters argued for expanded rights for 18 year olds while opponents cited highway dangers. District Rep. Edward Early led the opposition, noting Michigan's 18 rule increased youth auto accidents. The measure pertained to liquor code changes and included an amendment to limit Sunday hours for establishments.
