The Texas Legislature held a hearing on Senate Bill 870; the measure would remove the $1 limit of beer marketing items and allow for beer to be sold with items such as steins or glassware. According to State Sen. Leticia Van De Putte, "this bill is just one part of a broader, yearlong effort by my colleagues and I to iron out inconsistencies in the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission code."
