Summary Retain original provisions, except add legislative findings in response to the U.S. Surgeon General's "Call to Action to Prevent and Reduce Underage Drinking"; state that the call to action included goals of fostering societal changes that facilitate healthy adolescent development, helping to prevent and reduce underage drinking, and working to ensure that policies at all levels are consistent with the national goal of preventing and reducing underage alcohol consumption; include legislative findings that it is not in the best interest of the Commonwealth to allow underage youth to view the sampling of whiskey, bourbon, and other distilled spirits at events held at state-owned facilities; add legislative findings that it is in the public interest for representatives of the distilled spirits industry to educate the public during sampling events at state-owned facilities regarding the dangers cited in the Surgeon General's call to action.
