Alcohol Safety

Answer: A - When it comes to the hierarchy of liquor law enforcement and administration, national laws come first, followed by state laws, followed by municipal laws.

National or “federal” liquor laws will always be the most important because they have to be followed by every state. Likewise, state laws have to be followed by every municipality within state borders. However, state laws can be more severe than national laws, and in turn municipal laws can be the strictest of all.
