TALLAHASSEE, Fla., June 12 /U.S. Newswire/ -- The Distilled Spirits Council (DISCUS) today commended Florida Governor Jeb Bush for signing into law a bill which repeals the on-premise beverage alcohol tax - a move that could generate $30 million in new economic activity in the state and potentially create 400 new jobs for Florida's considerable hospitality industry, according to a DISCUS tax analysis.
