Accomplishments
AADIF/MICAP encouraged the establishment of the Michigan Liquor Control Commission.
The Office of Substance Abuse Services was planned and recommended by AADIF to the state legislature. It was adopted in 1974.
Restoration of the Minimum Age of 21 for the purchase or consumption of B/A. AADIF helped Michigan to become the first state in the union to return to 21.
AADIF/MICAP successfully advocated for the 500-foot rule. From the MLCC website. “A request to transfer the location of an SDD license or on-premises license may be denied if the proposed location is within 500 feet of a church or school.”
AADIF/MICAP supported tightening Michigan’s drunk driving laws by lowering the legal blood alcohol limits first from 0.15% to 0.10%, and then from 0.10% to 0.08%.
In 2010, AADIF/MICAP networked with other state and local non-profit organizations to encourage the Michigan Liquor Control Commission (MLCC) to ban the selling of premixed Alcohol Energy Drinks in Michigan. The ban remains in effect.
AADIF/MICAP helped prevent legislation which would have absolved licensees from liability for serving patrons who had over-imbibed.
AADIF/MICAP has encouraged Michigan Legislators on several occasions to defeat bills which would extend alcohol sales hours from 2 AM to 4 AM. Most recently in 2020.
MICAP currently supports that the blood alcohol content limit be lowered from .08% to .05%.
