Wine in stores passes Iowa House vote
The Iowa House approved a bill 61 to 33 to permit wine sales in grocery stores, sending the measure to the Senate. Rep Richard Drake opposed the bill. Supporters argue it would broaden choices and end the state monopoly, while critics fear higher alcohol use. A 1.25 per gallon excise tax would replace revenue from wine in state stores, and a 22 percent markup clause was dropped.
