Link to the Show / Show NotesGovernor Jon Huntsman has made it clear that he believes it's time to do away with private club laws in the state that require bar-goers to purchase memberships to any establishment that serves hard alcohol. He's backed by the tourism industry, many Utah drinkers and of course, many private clubs themselves. But Republicans in the Utah Legislature are not so keen on this idea. They believe that Utah's low DUI rates are linked to the state's conservative alcohol laws, and would much rather preserve the status quo. Will they reach consensus or not? And if not, what will it mean for Utah's private clubs? Joining the show to talk about this is attorney Lisa Marcy, a board member of the Utah Hospitality Association.
