The irresponsible legislation would allow <span class=\"xn-location\">California&#8217;s<\/span> 42,000+ barbershops and beauty parlors to give away alcohol without cost, licenses, permits, monitoring, Responsible Beverage Service training, or enforcement of any current regulations. <\/p>\n<p>Members of the California Alcohol Policy Alliance &#8211; Adults and youth concerned with public health and safety and committed to reducing alcohol-related harm, demonstrated briefly in front of the Drybar Brentwood, in <span class=\"xn-location\">Los Angeles<\/span>, and the 18\/8 Fine Men&#8217;s Salons in <span class=\"xn-location\">Lafayette, CA.<\/span> Both corporations are on record as the only supporters of AB 1322. The bill is authored by Assembly member <span class=\"xn-person\">Tom Daily<\/span> from <span class=\"xn-location\">Anaheim<\/span>, the home of Drybar&#8217;s corporate headquarters in <span class=\"xn-location\">California<\/span>. <\/p>\n<p><i>&#8220;This bill is nothing more than another ploy to enrich the special interest of a few and the alcohol lobby to the detriment of the health and safety of our community members,&#8221; <\/i>stated <span class=\"xn-person\">Richard Zaldivar<\/span>, co-chair of CAPA and Alcohol Justice board member.<i> &#8220;We do not need special privileged legislation that would allow beauty salons and barber shops to be able to serve alcohol without proper state licenses.

Alcohol Justice has estimated that if AB 1322 becomes law, the number of venues allowed to serve alcohol in the state will increase by 41%.\u00a0 Additional alcohol-related harm is inevitable with increased availability, especially when there is no license required and no enforcement of current alcohol regulations. <\/p>\n<p><i>&#8220;A lot of kids come to barbershops and salons and this bill will allow easy access and it&#8217;s a bad example,&#8221; <\/i>said <span class=\"xn-person\">Dayana Nunez<\/span>, 15, <span class=\"xn-location\">Bay Point, CA.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i>&#8220;Managers are not trained.
