Abstract

The Texas Legislature passed the Beer Industry Fair Dealing Act of 1981 as Senate Bill 720 which was sponsored in the Senate by Sen. Ogg and in the House by Rep. Washington. The bill was based on model legislation formulated by the United States Brewers Association and was passed with the support of that Association as well as that of the Wholesale Beer Distributors of Texas. Miller Brewing Company, however, opposed the bill.
