Your local bar may soon be offering a vaccine drink promotion.
The Senate approved legislation letting bars offer a free shot, beer, or glass of wine to those who can show proof of vaccination. If signed into law by the Governor, the promotion would run from June 10th through July 10th.
Senator Sara Feigenholtz of Chicago says the measure also lets bars and restaurants continue to offer cocktails to go, which proved vital during the pandemic.
“It’s really important that we give our hospitality, small businesses, independent businesses, every lever we can to stay alive and to survive,” said Feigenholtz.
The cocktails-to-go law would be extended until 2024 under the bill.
