Proof of Age; require certain retailers to use digital or card-swipe technology to verify customer age at point of sale

Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill requires stores that sell alcohol, tobacco, vape, or consumable hemp products to use a digital system or card swipe technology to check a customer's age if they have previously violated age verification laws. Any store selling age-restricted products can choose to use these technologies. This change aims to ensure customers are at least 21 years old when buying these products.
