(Indianapolis, IN) - Happy hour could return to establishments serving alcohol in Indiana, as a bill has been introduced in the state legislature to allow businesses to host happy hour prices and times for the first time since the 1980s.

Lawmakers feel the measure has a good chance of passing out of the House of Representatives and Senate before the ongoing legislative session concludes in early March.

According to supporters of the measure, the purpose would be to help businesses that have been struggling since the pandemic, but they also want to make sure alcohol sales during happy hour would be done safely.
