BlowBackTM future post date: March 19th, 2006

Congressman Brady Kevin today announced his support for an amendment to the Federal Omnibus Budget bill requiring states to take into effect the ability of an accused drunk driver to "hold his liquor", despite being over the legal limit. The amendment, known as the "Two Beer Queer Bill", would withold federal highway dollars from any state not adopting the standards. According to Kevin, "it's ridiculous that some places will prosecute someone for being a DWI when clearly they could recite every letter of the alphabet, whether or not it was in correct order."

Lobbying on behalf of the Distilled Spirits Council, former Congressman William Janklow stated that the amendment would save countless taxpayer dollars by "reducing the strain placed upon the criminal justice system by the needless prosecution of non-crack-using, white drivers. In some states, like say, South Dakota, this would eliminate the need to prosecute anyone for DWI whatsoever."
