INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (ADAMS) – State lawmakers are considering a bill that would create happy hour for Indiana bars.
House Bill 1086 would allow businesses to reduce their drink prices for up to four hours a day, but not exceeding 15 hours a week. This would be a change from the current Indiana law, which requires bars to offer drink specials all day long.
If approved, the new measure would prevent happy hours from happening between 10 p.m. and 3 a.m. It passed out of committee with a 12 to one vote.
