Forty-two states plus the District of Columbia have thus far enacted measures to close businesses deemed nonessential.
As nonessential businesses shutter in nearly every state plus the District of Columbia to slow the spread of the coronavirus, many liquor stores and cannabis dispensaries are making use of key exemptions to remain open and carry on with their operations.
In a March 21 executive order, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy published a list of essential businesses that would be exempt from the state's mandatory closures, and liquor stores were included. Levine added that Pennsylvania was working"to come up with a plan for patients who are addicted to alcohol who would suffer when the liquor stores are closed." Other establishments with licenses to sell alcohol, such as convenience stores otherwise able to remain open, could act as an alternative.
But as tax revenues drop precipitously in the states hit hardest by sputtering economic activity, keeping liquor stores open may offer a small cushion for financially precarious state governments.
