Explanation of Vote on House File 292 by Teter of Marion

The statement argues against a $500 000 liquor control appropriation amid a tight treasury with 6.4 million on hand and 3 million in warrants unpaid. It notes tax relief already given, warns of state funds tied up, and questions whether the liquor plan pays as we go while expressing cautious support for a future liquor bill. It cites punctuation concerns as a factor and repeats the plea that $500 000 is excessive.
