My latest policy brief for @TheBuckeyeInst on changes needed to an old #Oh law keeping @OhioCraftBeer from growing even more. Researchers with @TheJusticeDept found laws like Ohio's are "inhibiting the growth of the craft brewing industry." See https://t.co/oyHZM7RhFv… 1/2
In a new paper, Buckeye outlines how Ohio can re-brew the law that “disproportionately empowers distributors to the detriment of small craft brewers.” @OhioCraftBeer

When a law doesn't work, we repeal it. Ninety years ago today, we ended Prohibition. Today, Ohio's beer lovers should urge state legislators to remove an outdated law that restricts the growth of small breweries and robs consumers of their market power.

Our push to reform Ohio’s unfair, antiquated franchise law took a big step forward today. The law was written in 1974 to protect small businesses, but now is actively hurting small, independent breweries to the benefit of large, powerful beer wholesalers. https://t.co/Aqh45mkhJD

Laws dating back to the '70s make contracts between brewers and distributors uniquely difficult to terminate in Ohio. Joke is that it's easier to divorce your wife of 30 yrs than it is to break up with your wholesaler. @OhioCraftBeer wants to change that. https://t.co/gHdTk5JdU4

Ohio's craft brewing industry is campaigning for a change to franchise laws that they say unfairly lock them into wholesale contracts and hinder their growth.
