We need everyone's help to keep our children and young adults safe. Research makes it clear that the 'I drank when I was a kid and I'm okay' argument isn't good enough anymore. Underage drinkers, those who host underage drinking parties, and those who distribute alcohol to minors need to know they are being watched and reported.

Students going off to a vacation location for Spring Break need to be watchful and aware to remain safe. If students are underage, they should not drink alcohol. A wonderful travel experience can be ruined if young people put themselves in a situation where they can be harmed.
Steven Bloch

The legal issue is all about discrimination, ... The case has nothing to do with the serious issue of underage drinking. This is a false argument that the wholesalers are using to protect their monopoly.
Robert Koch
It's a step forward to addressing the problem. We won't ever solve it and stop all teenagers from underage drinking. We're hoping it'll inform parents and children about the effects and make them think the next time they want to drink.
Jill Bjorklund
I like older boys, but they think oh she's so underage, I love to have someone in mind when I am singing.
Mandy Moore
In 2005, 63 percent of Kansas students in grades eight through 12 reported having consumed alcohol in their lives. That's an eye-opening statistic that illustrates how pervasive underage drinking is throughout our state. The tip line is a way for every Kansas resident to help combat this threat, which for too long has been kept out of sight.
Pete Bodyk
I think it is a proactive step in being a deterrent. I think the presence of an officer is going to make people think twice about drinking underage.
Chris Bullins
At the end of the day we know how to reduce and prevent underage drinking. What is lacking is the will to put what we know to work on behalf of our youth.
David Jernigan
In high school certainly you can do a lot of things to increase attendance, but certainly if there's an adverse consequence the kids have set up and taken notice that underage citations are being given out and they're getting back to school.
Dennis Thompson
To me, there's been an ongoing concern from the neighborhood, the residents right near East Campus, about the level of activity, the underage drinking, the whole environment. In my opinion, when you have that type of environment, it's a breeding ground for trouble. What's our plan for dealing with it?

Mary Miller
Over the last several years we have seen a convergence of data indicating that efforts to reduce illegal underage drinking and drunk driving, such as education, awareness, and enforcement of the law, are having a measurable impact. While there is more work to be done, we're pleased about the progress that has been made and are committed to continuing our efforts focused on these serious issues.
Jeff Becker
Underage drinking is not only illegal, it is dangerous, and it is up to adults to do the right thing by not allowing their property be used for teen drinking parties.
Sen Judith Freedman
We'd go to a beautiful lunch, the best bars, drink their fancy drinks. We're all underage, first of all. We were having a blast and moving on to the next place. He would pick up the tab.
Bart Lally
There has been a huge amount of effort to stop underage drinking in this country in the last 10 years. It's made some impact with the boys. We are not getting anywhere with the girls.
David Jernigan
Today's underage drinker is tomorrow's drunk driver.
David Deiuliis
Families, communities and law enforcement must work together to stop the effects of underage drinking. These awards fund initiatives to assist youth in preventing alcohol and substance abuse by strong enforcement of laws and zero tolerance for those who provide alcohol to minors. In addition, prevention programs will assist youths and their families with developing alternatives to drinking.
Regina B. Schofield
There are a lot of attitudes that have to change about underage drinking, but how do you get people to change their attitudes? Our society is so skewed with regard to alcohol. It's almost like you can't have a good time without it.

Anyone in law enforcement can tell you that our work to combat the problems of underage drinking has to start with prevention.

[Vertical driver's licenses are issued for people under 21 so there can be no excuse for selling to a minor, police said.] It has been well publicized that the New Mexico Legislature sees this as having such a big impact on families, ... Because of all the underage DWI crashes and other effects of teenage drinking, they've made this a fourth-degree felony.
Scott Mills
In conjunction with Roseville and Rocklin police departments and the Placer County Sheriff's Department, we'll be looking for parties where parents could be contributing to underage drinking. Some parents think that once you're home it's OK, but the fact is that anyone under the age of 21 cannot consume alcohol and parents can be charged with a misdemeanor.
Kelly Baraga
Underage drinkers range from middle school to college age.
Bill Vasicek
In fairness, she's not the only one. She was just one of the more high profile. Sometimes people think it's OK if they take their keys away, but it's not all about drunk driving. Research shows the brain is not fully developed until age 21 and many things can damage the brain until then. All of those things that you absolutely would not wish on your child come from underage alcohol use.
Michele Compton
If they've got problems with bad bars, there are ways to close them. All you've got to do is send law enforcement in one night and find somebody drinking underage. Three or four of those, and the guy's lost his license. Why make everybody pay for a couple of bad apples?
Tom Sponseller
Underage drinking kills people in Shelton. There are a lot of immediate consequences to drinking.
Jason Perillo
We've got an epidemic up here of underage kids getting booze.

The spirits industry is vehemently opposed to underage drinking and has worked aggressively to combat this serious, complex issue.
Peter Cressy
Spring is a time of celebration for families, particularly with proms and graduation around the corner. Unfortunately, it is also a season of dread for parents, because too often these celebrations turn into a time of personal tragedy as a result of underage drinking.
Joe Luppino
There were more (underage kids) than I thought. It was a combination of the Hot Topic handout... and a number of faculty and staff members gave their tickets to their kids.
Leia Biholar
Many parents believe that underage drinking is a rite of passage and therefore condone drinking by hosting parties in their homes in an unfortunate attempt to protect their child from harm, This bill will send the correct message that underage drinking is not a rite of passage and that it is illegal.
Nancy Kelly
They played Boston. They played at the Boston Tea Party and through an amazing chain of events I got to hang out with them backstage even though I was underage.

Amber Dillon
Ultimately, it's about everyone in York County taking responsibility. We want to put a stop to underage drinking and save lives.
Jane Alleva
There was so much brush in the area, and you'd have not-respectable people hanging out all the time, ... I'm sure there was drug dealing happening, and I know there were underage kids drinking and throwing their beer cans everywhere. Now it looks so much better.
Standing Bear
If they just wanted to deter it [underage drinking], they would wear uniforms. But what they want is to bust people.
David Wheeler
It won't solve the entire underage drinking problem we face. It's not 100 percent full proof, but it's just another tool to help us reduce the number of kids that drink. Kids are still going to try to find a way to go to Juarez to binge drink, but it's going to be a lot harder now with these two curfew areas.
Paul Cross
They are there for security of students, not to bust underage drinking.
Daniel Leonard
Officers made contact with them in that room, found out that they did have an underage girl in there.

The issue of underage drinking is a national concern for schools and parents. At Miller Place we are not immune to teen drinking issues or many other national trends on teen activity.

Seth Lipshie

Steve Orlando
Nationwide, it is a concern and part of the reason FOCUS wanted to take part was because Floyd County has a really big underage drinking problem.
Jill Orthel
Drunk driving is the nation's most frequently committed violent crime. Underage drinking is the No. 1 youth drug problem, and MADD served more than 30,000 victims and survivors in 2004. It is time for everyone to realize that we need the support of the entire community to solve this problem and to save lives.
