Warnings today about unregulated drinking parties, thanks to action by state lawmakers. A last-minute addition to the state budget is under attack today. Scott Stenger of the Tavern League says it would allow nonprofit groups to provide free beer and wine at fundraisers, WITHOUT having a license.

Stenger's group is trying to convince lawmakers to dump the measure, which he dubs the "frat amendment" from the final state budget.
