flag New York lawmaker proposes drink lids in bars to prevent tampering, inspired by California law.

flag A New York state lawmaker is introducing a bill requiring bars and nightclubs to provide drink lids upon request to help prevent tampering and drug-related incidents, inspired by a similar California law. flag The measure, which follows a previous failed county resolution, would allow establishments to charge a small fee to cover costs. flag While supporters say it improves safety—especially for young patrons—some bar owners worry about increased expenses and logistics. flag The bill must still pass through legislative committees and both chambers before potentially taking effect later in 2026.
