| For | I guess. I'd rather more effort was made to get other kinds of businesses to Nevada other than the vises. | Apr-26-2013 |
| For | Along with craft brewing, craft distilling is becomming a booming business. This would allow Nevada to be included in that business and bring in the tax dollars that go with it. | Apr-02-2013 |
| For | Mar-30-2013 | |
| For | please also consider legalization of home craft distilling much along the lines of beer/wine.... | Mar-29-2013 |
| Against | Mar-24-2013 | |
| For | Great opportunity for Nevada to extend its history as The Silver State. | Mar-23-2013 |
| Against | What a surprise, ANOTHER bill to add an unnecessary "Fee" and layer of government where it is not needed! Booze is already heavily regulated by the Fed. Gov., this is just a new tax under another name. I am a teatotlar, I've never been a drinker of distilled spirits of any kind. I am also vehemently opposed to the endless growth of government and taxes so must oppose this sham. Instead of looking for new ways to tax innovation or new business we should be broadening our tax base through increased opportunity. Shame on the authors for this tax & spend bill. | Mar-22-2013 |
| For | For. There is no reason to not allow lawful craft distilleries. Side benefit will be JOBS and tax revenues! Vote YES. | Mar-21-2013 |

| For | I support the operation and regulation of craft distilleries in Nevada. It's a good small business opportunity. This bill should have been introduced years ago. | Mar-06-2013 |
| For | This is a great opportunity to encourage small businesses in Nevada. The opportunity for other local small business to provide their products to this type of business will be benificial to all. | Mar-06-2013 |
| For | I think this is a great idea. We need to encourge small businesses. | Mar-06-2013 |
| For | Mar-06-2013 | |
| For | Sounds like a great idea and would fit right in with our tourism industry. | Mar-05-2013 |

| For | This bill supports growth of business in the state. | Mar-04-2013 |
| For | I think this type of business would fit perfectly in the Reno area, especially in the Midtown district. | Mar-04-2013 |
| For | Would very much like to see this go through. | Mar-04-2013 |
| For | This bill will allow more expansion of business in Nevada. | Mar-04-2013 |
| For | Mar-03-2013 | |
| For | Sounds like something that will help the economy and draw in tourists. | Mar-03-2013 |
| For | I would be very proud to live in a State and City that has a home distilled spirit capable of becoming a widely known staple. Proud of my home. I was born and raised in Nevada and I would love to see this bill pass. | Mar-03-2013 |
| For | I support this bill and encourage all members to pass this bill. This would be a great opportunity for our state. | Mar-03-2013 |
| For | This will create jobs! There's a handful of propreiters that are waiting on this bill to pass so they can go legal and get some craft distilleries up and running! | Mar-03-2013 |
| For | I support this bill and confirm with many of my colleagues that this bill will help generate revenue and create jobs for our state. This bill allows the distilling industry the same benefits the brewing industry has and allows distilleries the opportunity to open up a “micro-distillery” / restaurant operation. Our neighboring states have the same agreement and I feel Nevada is missing out on an opportunity to cash in on this industry. As part owner in Seven Troughs Distilling Company I encourage all members of our legislature to pass this bill. | Mar-03-2013 |

| For | We need a respected state distillery we can count on! | Mar-03-2013 |
| For | Mar-03-2013 | |
| For | This bill is long time in coming. As one whom is working in this field, with Two Bald Guys Brewing and Distilling we can only see the benefits in this. I see increased exports from Nevada, more jobs for returning Veterans and the general public, more taxable product being produced, and Nevada accepting a new industry into the fold. I encourage the legislature to pass this bill this session. As president of Two Bald Guys Brewing and Distilling we are behind this bill 100% and wish it to be passed as written. | Mar-03-2013 |

| For | As part owner of Seven Troughs Distilling Company I applaud this bill. This would allow our distillery tours to be augmented by tastings of different products. More importantly it would allow us to sale limited products on site. This bill is necessary for transparency for all alcoholic beverage production and sales. | Mar-03-2013 |

| For | This bill will create jobs, increase tax revenue, and create a new tourist attraction for Nevada. Craft distilleries are very successful in other states & it's time that we pass this bill in Nevada. | Mar-02-2013 |
| For | This is a good bill. It will bring income & jobs to the State. Nevada should pass this in order to allow us to compete with other states in this area. | Mar-02-2013 |
| For | Mar-02-2013 | |
| For | As a small economic engine, not to mention a cultural one, I am in favor of this new emerging industry having a place in our fair state. In addition, I can't think of a valid reason not to allow them any more than we would not allow breweries or wineries to exist. | Mar-02-2013 |
| For | Mar-02-2013 | |
| For | Mar-01-2013 | |
| For | This bill can only be good for Nevada. More jobs, more taxes, more diversification and more visibility. | Mar-01-2013 |
| For | This bill would not only create a multitude of jobs and revenue for the state, but would also provide a draw for tourist to our state. California and Oregon already passed very similar bills and have seen great growth and income from distilleries such as Anchor in S.F. and Rogue in Oregon. These craft distilleries have become a destination of travel to many craft spirt/beer enthusiast much like the napa valley region is to wine enthusiast. | Mar-01-2013 |
| For | Please pass this bill as it will bring in $$ to the state. | Mar-01-2013 |
| For | This would increase nevada exports over time, create more jobs within the state and more small businesses | Mar-01-2013 |
| For | I support passing this bill immediately. It is unfortunate that this did not pass in the 2011 session. This bill will make business opportunities for distillers and will support NV agriculture. | Mar-01-2013 |
| For | Feb-24-2013 | |
| For | Overall I think this is an alright plan, but I think it should be possible to sell retail at the distillery for onsite consumption. ie: restaurant on site. | Feb-21-2013 |
| For | Yes yes yes yes!!! This would be amazing! | Feb-21-2013 |
| For | This bill is a long time in coming! We've been behind the curve on craft products for too long! | Feb-21-2013 |
