Ileana Ros-Lehtinen Floats Lifeline for Local Watering Holes

Florida Republican Ileana Ros-Lehtinen was so bummed out about the imminent shuttering of the Pour House, she rushed to Twitter to rally support for a bold new initiative: the DRINKS Act.  

 

   

According to a Ros-Lehtinen aide, the umbrella proposal “includes but is not limited to 18th Amendment, Hawk and Dove, Lil’ Pub, and Pour House” — all venerable Capitol Hill hangouts, save for the struggling
Hawk ‘n’ Dove , that have blinked out of existence over the past few months.
