Lower the legal age to purchase non-hard liquor beverages (beer,wine) to 18 years old.

Created by M.H. on February 05, 2014

We the people of the United States of America believe that citizens of, and above the age of 18 should have the right to purchase Beer and/or wine. When a US citizen turns 18, they are held under the same laws as an adult, and are legally considered one too. As a law abiding citizen, I believe it it only fair if I am considered an adult under the law, I should be able to enjoy a beer with my friends/family responsibly. As citizens of one of only a few countries in the world where the legal drinking age is 21 years and above, us Americans believe it is unreasonable and should be changed. This petition is not asking for the ability to purchase hard liquor, only for the right to controllable and reasonable beverages like beer and wine. Please take what is presented here into consideration.
