The approval all but finalizes what proposed changes to state law voters will decide in this November&#8217;s general election.<\/p>\n<p>The measures approved for the ballot Friday are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Initiative 96<\/strong>, which would increase the number of retail liquor licenses a Colorado entity can hold from two to eight next year, and gradually increase to an unlimited number after 2037<\/li>\n<li><strong>Initiative 121<\/strong>, which would allow grocery and convenience stores licensed to sell beer to also sell wine beginning in March<\/li>\n<li><strong>Initiative 122<\/strong>, which would allow third-party delivery of alcoholic beverages<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The three initiatives round out the three others the secretary of state previously approved for the ballot and five that were approved by state lawmakers during the last legislative session.<\/p>\n<p>The other initiatives include proposals to cut the state income tax from 4.55% to 4.4%, to legalize psilocybin mushrooms, and to dedicate one-tenth of 1% of state income tax to affordable housing funds.<\/p>\n<p>Lawmakers, meanwhile, are asking voters to require initiated measures that would change the tax rate to include a table comparing their effects across income brackets and to cap income tax deductions for high-income taxpayers in order to pay for universal free school meals, among others.<\/p>\n<p>Supporters of the ballot initiatives needed to submit about 125,000 valid signatures in order to place the measures on the ballot. A majority of voters need to say yes to them for them to become law.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.denverpost.com\/2022\/08\/26\/colorado-liquor-laws-wine-grocery-stores\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Colorado voters will decide this November whether they want the option of buying wine with their groceries, as well as other changes to state liquor [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":129037,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
