    GOVERNOR NAPOLITANO SIGNS LEGISLATION TO EXTEND BAR HOURS
    Asks Agencies to Monitor Data

    PHOENIX – Governor Janet Napolitano has signed House Bill 2570, allowing establishments serving liquor to continue alcohol sales until 2:00 a.m. The bill modifies the previous cutoff time of 1:00 a.m., and will take effect 90 days after the close of this legislative session.

    The Governor has also signed a letter to the Directors of the Department of Public Safety, the Governor’s Office of Highway Safety and the Department of Liquor Licenses and Control, asking for close monitoring of the effects of the new law.

    “Even as I sign the bill, I’m still concerned about the impact it could have on our citizens, and on state and local law enforcement,” said Governor Napolitano. “I want the agencies to keep track of any changes and report back to me in six months.”

    I was wondering if and when they were going to make a final decision on that law. Drunk driving is a very huge issue in Arizona anyways. I really can't see the extended bar hours making things any worse (or more dangerous) than they already are. I'm glad it passed.

    It is final, and will take effect 90 days after the close of this legislative session ends. I do not know when the session ends though.
    I really don't think it will change any this with drunk driving other than the fact people will be getting arrested at a later hour.

    Hallelujah! I am glad it passed! Now how about they end the session already huh? LOL I'm anxious to have another hour to make money

    Cardinal, I'm with you. I don't think much will change in the way of DUI or alcohol-related crimes, other than the hour of occurrence.
