MEBA: Grassroots action

I heard about this group last year, and apparently, they are taking another swing again this year at changing the beer laws in Mississippi.

Mississippians for Economic and Beverage Advancement (MEBA) is trying to increase the current alcohol percentage allowed for beer in Mississippi from 5% to 17%. They have some interesting arguments and information on the topic, and they are currently asking Mississippians to contact their legislator in support of Senate Bill 2851.

  1. Thanks for the post. I read your blog daily and had planned to email you about the bill today or tomorrow. Glad you beat me to the punch. We need all the help we can get with publicity and communications with the legislators, especially the members of the Senate Finance Committee. If you now of anyone who might be interested please let them know.

  2. You keep writing and I'm sure Mississippi will keep drinking (even in the "dry" counties)
