Indiana Libertarians holding ‘drink-in’ to promote liquor law changes … – WANE

SHERIDAN, Ind (WANE) Soon, Democrats and Republicans will review Indianas liquor laws, but theyre not the only political parties debating cold beer sales.

This weekend, a drink-in will be held at a Rickers gas station. A few weeks ago, the local Libertarian party held an event at the Columbus gas station.

This time, its the state party going to the Rickers in Sheridan. Those two stores caused an uproar during the 2017 legislative session.

The owner obtained a liquor license that allowed each location to sell cold beer carryout. Right now, Indianas law only allows restaurants, and liquor stores to do so.

Rickers got around the law by selling made to order food. We caught up with the Libertarian party chair Tuesday. A drink-in he said is a unique event that he hopes will help his party, and get Indianas alcohol law changed.

That was not on the top of my lists of something that we would be doing, but its a fun event, Indiana Libertarian Party Chair Tim McGuire said. Its a little tongue and cheek. Were excited to be doing it.

If youre interested in attending, the drink-in takes place at the Rickers Sheridan site, Sunday at 3 p.m. Libertarian Party members will stick around for a couple hours.

In a Facebook event, the party said the drink-in will essentially be a rally for change.

The Indiana Legislature is preventing your freedom to choose and protecting classes of businesses through legislation. Come to Sheridan, Indiana to show your support for your right to choose and fair business legislations. We will also be supporting the rights of Rickers Stores to be able to not only sell cold beer but sell it on Sundays as well.
