Liquor lobby blocks House vote on 0.08 alcohol rule
Washington insiders say intense lobbying by liquor and restaurant groups kept the House from voting on an amendment to the highway bill that would set a national 0.08 percent blood alcohol content standard. Democratic sponsor Nita Lowey blasted the effort as profits over lives, while groups like NABWI ABI and the National Restaurant Association pushed back with ads letters and meetings to shift responsibility to states. The Senate already approved a similar national standard and President Clinton supports it.
