Vote Yes for Licenses and Local Prosperity in Lowell
A persuasive local message argues that a no license stance hurts Lowell financially and raises crime, taxes, and police costs. It claims no license drains $130,000 from Lowell and $40,000 to the state, boosting liquor dealer profits in neighboring cities, while a regulated license would cut taxes, increase revenue, and spur job growth and improvements. It urges voters to base choices on hard facts and common sense.
