Commissioner Eligibility
The Alcoholic Beverage Laws Enforcement Commission consists of seven members appointed by the Governor with the advice and consent of the Senate. Five members represent the Lay Citizenry at-large. The remaining two are required to possess experience in law enforcement. Members are appointed for terms of five years. The State Constitution directs that no more than four of the Commission members shall be from the same political party and no more than two of the members shall be from the same federal congressional district. In addition, the Constitution prohibits any Commission member from holding any alcoholic beverage license or having any interest in the manufacture, sale, distribution, or transportation of alcoholic beverages.
