ALTUS, Arkansas (February 26, 2007)
- We think it's unfair that a 130 year-old way of
life here on St. Mary's Mountain can be wiped out
by Senator Terry Smith's Senate Bill 304. We feel
it is our right to ship wine to our Arkansas customers
via FedEx. To say that a liquor store clerk is more
qualified to check your ID than a FedEx employee
is not a good enough argument to prevent Arkansans
from recieving wine delivered by FedEx. Senator Terry
Smith's attempt to eliminate direct sales by Arkansas
wineries at their place of business is a return to
the days of Prohibition.
I am thankful we are represented by Senator
Ruth Whitaker, who we pray will bring sense to Arkansas
wine legislation.
